I first saw this movie when it came out in 1993 and then I thought it was a brilliant film and I was one of the many people sobbing in the theatre. Last night was the 3 year anniversary of the death of my father to leukemia and this movie happened to be on TV. I got to watch it from an entirely different perspective and I have to say, after watching my father deteriorate and pass away, this movie was one of the most accurate portrayals of the last months & days of a cancer victims life (especially the death scene itself). I just wanted to give it my highest praise for showing the pain that is inflicted on all the family and reminding me my dad is finally out of pain & got to "ride his roller-coaster"
Thank you.
