He confesses his concern about how he will teach when he can no longer speak or move his hands. “This is how I give to people.” Morrie’s good friend and former college at Brandeis is now going deaf. Koppel visualizes two, old, good friends, one who can’t talk, and one who can’t hear. “We will hold hands, and there’ll be a lot of love passing between us. Ted, we’ve had thirty-five years of friendship. You don’t need speech or heating to feel that.” When they get to reading a letter from the viewers of the last audiovisual, they talk about a woman who started a club for children who lost their parents. Morrie lost his mother when he was five, he cries when discussing this and Ted said “Morrie, that was seventy years ago your mother died. The pain still goes on?” and Morrie replies, “You bet”.
