This is great. I lived with my father for 11 years following my mothers death, nearly eight years of that time we lived with the diagnosis. He wanted a time line. His doctors response was that everyone was different and that he would not put him in a box as far as his abilities or life expectancy, just as he would not put his Autistic child in a box. I was so grateful for that. He passed nearly eight years after diagnosis. I so wish I knew what I know now about the desease having been his caregiver until his death. I was the
fortunate child, the one who had the time to know the man, not just Daddy.
