His account of his mother's death at the age of 50 from cancer of the liver was very touching but at the same time very sad. I read one of the Buddhist articles as well but it is a subject I struggle to understand and get my head round. A little bit like learning Thai. Buddhism and the Thai language are two fronts I really must put a lot more effort into. Best wishes.
