At 60, and being correctly diagnosed 10 years ago, I thought he'd get back to "normal." </p> <p>Well it's becoming clear normalcy is as fleeting. </p> <p>He'll always have his little episodes, and my mother and I will always have to deal with it.</p> <p>Mostly I feel bad for her. She's a saint with willpower that I'll never have.</p> <p>And it just sucks sometimes.</p>JFri, 22 Aug 2008 15:19:11 -0000
