While a lot of the medical terminology went over my head, it doesn't take away the beauty of Paul's writing. His search in understanding death, and with that life, and how they are intertwined, was compelling. I like to think he found meaning in the end, and that meaning is different for everybody. I think while we can never fully be prepared for death, or even understand it, to accept the road ahead and go with confidence, takes immense strength. 
What a book to end 2023 with.
