I have an older brother and an older sister - and they had the time of their lives at university. They were at Newcastle and Edinburgh.

The big horrible thing isn't the plane crash or the earthquake or the diagnosis. When those things occur, we act, we know what to do. We live or we die. Hell is what we do in the meantime.
