The feeling I have now is that I was like four or five months away and not because I was actually there for a month, but when you look at it it seems like more.”

What is going to happen is what has to happen. You are prepared. There is no plan here. At one point I was scared. I went to and from therapy several times. I was scared when I thought ‘how is this going on?’” said the journalist, who also appealed to his classic humor.

“My universal message after all this is to do everything you can, love each other, don’t waste your time. I know it sounds like a hippie speech but it’s not. It’s like that, there is no time. “It’s life and death.” complete.
