i defy anyone with aging parents to listen to this piece and not be deeply moved, deeply engaged. it is the best take i've heard on a question now becoming ubiquitous. the mterial is so drenched with emotion that the straightforward take of both the narrator and the main subject are much appreciated--it's truly a piece that should appear on everyone's air.
