I have known Scott Lawrence since 1996. I can pretty much guess the exact date since he and his family moved into the same neighborhood at the same time that my family did and we all became immediate fast friends. In fact, our builder told us that Scott, Mary Carol, Jackson and Mary Kathryn were moving in at about the same time as us and predicted we would get along well and, in the end, he was correct! Even though Huntsville is now a cosmopolitan area where a lot of folks are from other areas of the country, Scott is a true Huntsville native and his family goes back here for several decades. Scott is a close friend and confidant to many and you'll understand why after you listen to him on this podcast!

Mary Carol realized that what she was going to do that day was be sick. That was how it was going to be, and actually, all she needed to do was to be with her illness. Her activity for the day was to be sick. And as her fever rose and the pain intensified, she practiced some deep meditative breathing. She worked on simply being with the discomfort, with an awareness that at some point, it would stop. In this episode of the Death Dhamma podcast, we follow Mary Carol as she grapples with being ill and her assumptions around what impermanence means versus what impermanence REALLY means. Mary Carol might not be too different than the rest of us.
