There's a story in the paper today that there is such a shortage of organ dodnors they are considering using his. I don't really know what to say about that

I haven't read all the preceeding posts, I can guess that there is a lot of stuff about wasting his chance of life etc. He reminds me of a very dear friend, who - like George - was a weak alcoholic, and did not have the courage or strength to fight his addiction. George's death has brought back many painful memoires of trying to help someone fight the condition of alcoholism, and has brought to mind the phrase - there, but for the grace of god, go many of us.......

I just want to echo Bix in saying that I want to remember the good times
