An important part in the book, Tuesdays With Morrie is when Mitch goes to visit Morrie after many years of no form of communication and he sees how much Morrie suffers. Morrie is paralyzed from his legs due to his illness, ALS. He arrives at Morrie's house in West Newton, Boston in 1995 a few days after the "Nightline" show. He finally reunites with Morrie after sixteen years and he was nervous about seeing him and noticed the change in his thin, white hair and his aging face. Mitch remembers how he once was when he was in college being taught by "Coach" (Morrie.) Mitch also noticed how Morrie shook and struggled with simple activities like picking up his food with a fork. As he is also questioned, he realizes how his life came to be and how he didn't fulfill his dream. This was the exposition in the moment and Morrie shows no response to the moment besides being the same professor from long ago. I think that Morrie will inspire others to not fear death and that Mitch will learn to accept death and learn how its like to truly love life and do what makes him genuinely happy.
