It looked to me, from what I saw of him, like his pain was controlled. One thing that helps pain control, other than medication, is interacting with others. It seemed that he had plenty of stimulation of that kind.
Morrie Schwartz :) what a wonderful man.
Tuesday's With Morrie is a wonderful book. Mitch and Morrie's relationship was mutualistic in that they both got something out of it. Mitch was able to let go of his perfectionism, and regain a sense of self that he thought had been lost long ago. Throughout his meeting's with Morrie, Mitch was reminded that although the culture of the U.S. is materialistic, true value lies in things which aren't material--the love of family, joy in life, truly listening to friends. Morrie was able to see one of his star student's flourish, and continue to teach until his death. Real teachers, after all, love to teach. Also, Morrie was able to spread his life philosophy through Mitch. All in all, they relied on each other in similar, yet somehow vastly different, ways.
Morrie was not the type of person who was bothered by it. I personally think that Mitch was more bothered by the fact that he was tape recording Morrie. If you think about it, Morrie agreed to appear on TV at his worst physical point, showing that he was not afraid to be seen as weak, and showing that he wanted to teach his life lessons to the world.
