I met Jim Milley at a rehab center where we were both broken — his bones, my spirit. When we were both rejuvenated enough to leave, I went to an independent living facility and found its 12 residents in need, spiritually and day-to-day. I have engaged in moral discussions with men who have spent 20 and 30 years in prison, and women who have borne terrible tragedies…while helping them with basics, such as accompanying them to Social Security and the DMV, where I am “better” dealing with bureaucrats.
