I’m out in the wilds of Waltham, about 7 mi west of Boston

A pal of Hubby’s is loaning him her Star Wars dvds so he can show them to a friend tomorrow who has never seen it, so we’re taking her out to dinner.

And we’re early, so we’re sitting in the Dunkin parking lot. : )

Very cool fans! You are so handy.

The medical community is focusing on an important topic at last – life near death.  The lessons are 1) talk about it earlier and 2) “If, ultimately, end-of-life conversations are less about death and more a focus on life itself, then working in this field is not so much about perfecting medical interventions as it is about perfecting being human—an insight so simple it’s radical.”

Words to Live By
by David Cameron
“When helping a patient prepare for death, talk about life instead”
