i saw the segment on ESPN...very well done piece. the letters' contents were incredible, it was sad that he really thought he was going to get better...his wife & doctor continued the optimism (hiding the exact truth from him of the extent of his illness), which i guess made his last months somewhat more managable.

amazing man, amazing speech.
