I'll be glad to post updates. It's interesting how twice in my life I have encountered people who just leave me wanting to grab hold of them, sit them down, and try to understand the unexplained impact they have had on me, and how transformative the experience can be. The other time this happened was after the medical staff told my mother-in-law that they thought it was time that she "just go home [to die]" and my then wife and I met with a hospital chaplain. I felt I was in the presence of a divine being dressed in a suit and tie. I could not figure it out, and when I asked him about his background, he was vague and not forthcoming. I didn't understand until I went home and looked him up online. It turns out he is a Buddhist chaplain at this major hospital. Then I realized why I felt such a strong spiritual feeling coming from this person. I felt I could learn so much from him. I will never forget him and that unexpected and amazing encounter.
