Connie opened the door and let me in. Morrie was in his wheelchair by the kitchen table,Louis Vuitton Artsy, wearing a loose cotton shirt and even looser black sweatpants. They were loose because his legs had atrophied beyond normal clothing size-you could get two hands around his thighs and have your fingers touch. Had he been able to stand, he'd have been no more than five feet tall, and he'd probably have fit into a sixth grader's jeans.

"I got you something,Louis Vuitton Galliera," I announced, holding up a brown paper bag. I had stopped on my way from the airport at a nearby supermarket and purchased some turkey,Louis Vuitton Siracusa, potato salad,Louis Vuitton Estrela, macaroni salad, and bagels. I knew there was plenty of food at the house,Louis Vuitton L, but I wanted to contribute something. I was so powerless to help Morrie otherwise. And I remembered his fondness for eating.

"Ah,Louis Vuitton Alma, so much food,Louis Vuitton Speedy!" he sang. "Well. Now you have to eat it with me."

We sat at the kitchen table,Louis Vuitton Delightful, surrounded by wicker chairs. This time, without the need to make up sixteen years of information,Louis Vuitton Neverfull, we slid quickly into the familiar waters of our old college dialogue,Louis Vuitton Keepall, Morrie asking questions, listening to my replies,Louis Vuitton Wallets, stopping like a chef to sprinkle in something I'd forgotten or hadn't realized. He asked about the newspaper strike, and true to form, he couldn't understand why both sides didn't simply communicate with each other and solve their problems. I told him not everyone was as smart as he was.

Occasionally,Louis Vuitton Palermo, he had to stop to use the bathroom,Louis Vuitton Tivoli, a process that took some time. Connie would wheel him to the toilet,Louis Vuitton Cirrus, then lift him from the chair and support him as he urinated into the beaker. Each time he came back, he looked tired.

"Do you remember when I told Ted Koppel that pretty soon someone was gonna have to wipe my ass?" he said.

I laughed. You don't forget a moment like that. "Well, I think that day is coming. That one bothers me."
