Birth and death are two non-negotiables for human beings. We usually welcome birth but dread death. Can we learn to celebrate both? After learning of his own terminal cancer diagnosis in February 2022, Richard Gaillardetz, professor of theology at Boston College, author and editor of numerous books, writes of his journey finding hope, humor and blessing. Perhaps Richard’s story can help each of us ponder the mystery of our own lives and inevitable death with more trust and peace.
