Dying Well, ch3 part 2

What is the question you will ask if you should find that your life is limited?

For Anne Marie Wilson in this chapter she is examing the things that don't seem quite as important if you are in good health.

Questions of pain, scent, marriage. Answers are coming from her doctor, Dr. Byock and nurse Andi. The most important things in life are what we think as individuals not as a society that judges whole concepts.

For Anne Marie the hope for a pain free ending and not smelling "bad" are goals that take her through her journey.

I have a hard time getting through this chapter without crying like a baby. That is why I ended up dividing it into 3 parts in order to keep my composure and read the entire chapter without having stops in the recording to let you share in the joyous noise of me blowing my nose and sniffling excessively.

I try to read the words of each chapter in a tone that won't put you to sleep but I even get bored hearing my own voice. I can tell at points during this chapter that I am getting absorbed into the story and reading faster as my mind races to become a part of the story.

When I read faster, I think I may miss a few words.

I hope I haven't missed anything.

I hope you won't miss this chapter.
