If you're interested in the way that people deal with terminal illness you might also like to read Louise Dean's [[Becoming Strangers]].

|comment= Honestly, I would have to read it to see if it's actually possible to like such an utter bastard (and that refers to the affair, NOT the casual sex).
Unless his wife knew and approved?

|comment= I was surprised myself, Magda. I expected to hate him, but the story is told with a brutal honesty and no cloying self-justification. It brought home to me that whilst the patient in a terminal illness has got hold of the shitty end of the stick those around them have to find a way of coping with the situation too. Dan does and without giving too much away, he does it brilliantly.

|comment= this bookd touched me far more than a story of love by Segal. the last one I think is more suitable for scolars. but the love life is something real, something touching. the reality is the most important factor that made my cry. I was crying in the end. because it took me one evening to read a book, but the author lived in this hell for more than a year....
i admire his love of life! its he who loved life! in stead of running away, having better life than he had, he cleaned after her, looked at her dead eyes for more than a year...
