@hongshan We never know what words will spark a response for others as they read them, or listen to them. When we are listening, the speaker can place inflections where they want, and voice the grammar breaks. As we read, our brains will do that [almost automatically] for us!
I'll wager that your wife found your voice soothing as you read to her, and given in a loving manner, it was certainly a gift from you to her. I am also a malignant melanoma survivor!

Thank you, you are a kind and thoughtful writer. As time progressed, I had read to her all of her personal library that was light enough, and then she turned to me, eyes glinting. "Make me laugh" she said. "I can't seem to sleep now without laughing", (which was true). Just a laugh or two." "You can make me laugh." And the kicker. "You'd do it if I was a child." I can do this, in fact, but the strain is enormous. And I believe, in my own MM case now, my caregivers are suffering worse than me, feeling that every knot tied, every fish fried is inadequate and they must do it better.
Enough complaining. Ginger, how would you progress if you were me? I want to move my case from the team in Taiwan to the US, where a great team would regulaarly monitor my strange lack of disease. And lack of stamina, typing this short note took forever. I have no 2ndary issues, I'm a carefully polished 70 years old white mail. The first white male served by the Taiwan hospital who have done great things.
Thank you.
