I am not sure I will ever think of Oliver Sacks the same way again.
Thank you for sharing Jenny.
I think that I was probably in denial as I watched my mother die of cancer. The biggest shock was the body transformation. I cannot think of any film (I have not seen Awakenings) that authentically reflects this. Maybe I was naive? Not sure what I did expect. Was a challenge none the less.
Something that you might be interested in (if you have not already come upon it in the past) is this podcast capturing Sacks’ last days:
One of the most moving things I have listened to.
