"(RR:) At this time, was Mingus able to function at all physically?

(AD:) He was in a wheelchair. It was a very sobering experience for me.

(RR:) Could he write?

(AD:) He could not lift a hand. I went to shake his hand and all that he could do is just barely lift his arm, his hand was limp. It was sad. But still there was a spark in his eye and a fire in his voice, because he got frustrated, he used to yell and scream when things were not right. It was an enlightening experience for me. He was mostly talking about the present."
