Paul Perkovic, featured in radio documentary on same-sex couple coping with cancer and dying, has died

Paul Perkovic, featured in this beautiful BBC radio spot I blogged on Boing Boing about living with advanced, end-stage cancer, has died. Here's an alternate link to the radio documentary. (thanks, Paul Hoffman)

Boing Boing editor/partner and tech culture journalist Xeni Jardin hosts and produces Boing Boing's in-flight TV channel on Virgin America airlines (#10 on the dial), and writes about living with breast cancer. Diagnosed in 2011. @xeni on Twitter. email: xeni@boingboing.net.

Eric’s brief Facebook message says “Paul passed away this morning peacefully in my arms.” Blessings to both of them.
