“I’m not fearful about aging,” admits Richard, “I’m fearful about suffering. I’m also fearful about something happening to my wife, Sally, or to my children, Andrew and Greta, or to their families, or to my close friends.

I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to deal with my final days consciously; the prospect of failing to do that, however, is frightening.”
