Can’t believe you went through this with your wife. Dying of something no one knows how you got and there is no cure. This buddy of mine—47 years old. All he wants is a chance to fight it. Seems there is none.

Being told it is terminal upon finding out what was wrong- very defeating on another level.

Are your friend’s eyes very sensitive to light?

He will want sun glasses indoors.
