ThomstonI had the experience of having my grandmother in a nursing home at the end of her life, and had dementia set in with my father. He was in a nursing home with dementia at the end of his life, but it happened for me personally 10 years ago. My father was much older than my mother, so I experienced it as a pretty young person. People's parents die at various ages, but my father died of mortality. He died of being an old person. Illness and stuff happened, but essentially, he was old and he was going to die.

Losing my mother, losing dear friends, is now part of the fabric of my being alive. And the fabric keeps changing, which is interesting.
Victoria RedelMisunderstanding may arise by confusing the Buddhist and scientific definitions of death. Within the scientific system you spoke quite validly of the death of the brain and the death of heart. Different parts of the body can die separately. However, in the Buddhist system, the word death is not used in that way. You'd never speak of the death of a particular part of the body, but rather of the death of an entire person. When people say that a certain person died, we don't ask, "Well, which part died?"

Jodi PicoultI consider part of lower Manhattan to be hallowed ground.

George WillIt is true, these Roman Catholics, priests and all, impress me as a people who have fallen far behind the significance of their symbols.

Barbara MikulskiIn stark contrast to two nights ago, when I felt Peeta was a million miles away, I'm struck by his immediacy now.

Since my father died and I stopped trusting my mother, no one else's arms have made me feel this safe.
