To think this is a beautiful summary of love and life

There is a fascinating account of how Peter Scott-Morgan is living with Motor Neurone Disease. His plans are a way ahead for improving life for people with major disabilities, those left disabled by stroke or who loses functions with age.

It's well worth reading but it's the final paragraph that left me a sobbing mess.

So, I ask, what keeps him going? There’s a pause as he types. “Carrying on living is certainly up there,” he says. “Even higher is carrying on having hopes and dreams and prospects. But number one, of course, is carrying on side by side with the person I’ve loved all my adult life. That’s well worth changing the world for.”

Auto-correct blunder - it's Scott-Morgan not Murray.
