The Daybreak Shawl--still being ignored.

Blather: Becoming an undergrad again. Psychologists prescribing in the prisons...maybe someday.

I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy your podcast. I have found the series about death very informative. I lost my husband about two months ago. A lot of things you have talked about, we went through. My husband died at home and we had Hospice. He had pancreatic cancer, but we were very fortunate to have 19 months after was diagnosed. He died at night while I was sleeping. Something woke me up that morning. He hadn't been out of the bed for about a week, but he had kicked his leg out of the bed and his arm was out. It was like he saw someone that he was trying to get to. It has been interesting to me that a lot of things you mentioned, we went through. Thanks again.

Dr. Gemma, I can't seem to find your email address so I will leave a comment here. The tuna blended mixture sounded good to me, hence I gave it to the DH. He blogged about it today at: http://livingthegrandlife.blogspot.com

It was so funny I almost wet my pants, and I hope you get a kick out of it, too!
