"One cannot skip to the end of healing"

You should be watching it.

Even just the 3rd series: it stands alone, I think.

I can send it if you want.

It’s available here; I tried the first episode of series 1 but found it dull and a little pretensions. I thought maybe I’m not giving it a chance so read some reviews; I found a deeply split opinion which reflected both of our perceptions.

"Giving it a chance" would be sticking with it for a few more episodes beyond episode one. Series 3 is on a different level than series 1 and 2.

I’ll give it another spin sometime.

I have a close friend who has been given a 50% chance of living with his inoperable cancer for another six years; the other 50% is two or three years.

I wonder if there is a way for me to approach this reality now, and in the next few years to come, that might preemptively assuage the unavoidable grief and make the subsequent healing more rapid and more positive.

Four anonymous red thumbs.

Interesting.

Ha ha, yeah.

Maybe moonbus will insist that the problem is me and not the mentality of the four craven thumbers.
