Tuesdays With Morrrie pg 40-100

As of now Morrie's condition is getting worse. He is becoming short of breath, when a health y person can count to about 70 while exhaling Morrie can only count to 13 before he runs out of breath, which is pretty bad. He is always cold and can not move without help. He constantly needs help so there has to be some one at his house at all times with him (he has a few aids that stay at his house). Mitch has been going to his house to visit and take his classes with him every Tuesday. Morrie is talking about his family now. He is talking about how his uncle had cancer and he was scared that he would get it to but instead of him getting it his brother got it instead. When he was a child his mother died and when he got a step mother he could not tell his little brother because his dad wanted David (his little brother) to think that it was his real mother. Morrie said that family is not all about love but to know that someone is always going to be there for you. Which I personally think is a good way to look at it.

Mike, I'm not sure why you're retelling the story. What are those plot points supporting? In other words, what case are you trying to make? I'd rather you focus on the final two sentences and explore your opinion on Morrie's thoughts.
