Great coincidence

I was skimming through the channels on Sirius and came upon the last half of this story. I heard it twice in This American Life and each time, it breaks my heart. I wish I thought to call Phil Collins when I was going through the same thing Starlee went through. Great piece, great writing, really nicely done.
