Waitwaitwait so there's a TIME TRAVEL story and nobody is trying to stop her dying? Is there some sort of sciencey reason that they can't mess with the timeline or is Les really that awful? Oh my god why isn't she the focus? That's so- ohmyGOD

From the perspective of the current-old-guys, they (or at least Crazy Harry) remembered this time travel meeting from their own pasts.  So it would seem that nothing CAN change, since if they traveled back into the future and altered something, our future wouldn’t remember it.  

So, yeah, Young Les, having read his own book, in ten years time is not going to give himself or his wife a heads up about how her doctors mixed up some files and end up murdering her through a dumb clerical error.  

because if his lisa isn’t dead, what else is left of him
