James Lileks on Mortality

James Lileks, known to bloggers for his daily Internet column The Bleat, wrote a long piece in 1996 about his mother's death from cancer. Go forth and read "October at Home".

And if you want a shorter take on losing a parent to cancer, read my doggerel "But through fifth floor hospital panes...." in an old PDF edition of Prolog. It's no One True Thing, but it got published.

 
To say Noggle, one first must be able to say the "Nah."
