Sometimes Death takes too damn long

[jhetley]

Noticed an obit in the paper this morning, a former boss. A difficult man to work for (you didn't work _with_ him), he had been slipping mentally for years before I left his office. And that was over fifteen years ago. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Association for Frontal Temporal Dementia. (Should that be "for" or "against"?)

I never liked the guy, but I wouldn't wish that death on our neighbor's yappy chihuahua.

Dementia is a terrible thing. And who knows at what stage it may have started? His whole life might well have been determined by it, at least in part, perhaps.

May he rest in peace.
