I had a board meeting last Thursday and I talked to the board about
Gordon and that I need to go and I'm
going to go for an extended period
of time because I would need to
be in quarantine for two weeks. MOBILE CHIMES And my board president phoned
me and said, "You need to go sooner rather
than later," and, "You need to go more than
once." They're very nice people

Movie Summary
An uplifting documentary about coping with inoperable cancer may sound unlikely, but here it is. Gordon was diagnosed eight years ago and began using the medium of queer comic books to confront his feelings and fears. He employs humour to get to the heart of taboos surrounding death and disease, weaving many of the wonderful carers and nurses he meets into his expressively illustrated world. Sage, sweet, and stimulating, it is also a long-distance love story between Edinburgh and Virginia, USA. We could all learn a thing or two about love, life – and death – from Gordon.
