“People would ask, "Why don't you put her in a nursing home?" I always answered, "I feel it is my responsibility, because she's my wife and Heather's mother. I love her and it's my job to take care of her for as long as I physically and mentally can." Every day, I would rush home at lunch, prepare her something to eat and drive her around a little, too. She loved to ride in the car and that seemed to keep her smiling. By late October, she had really gone down. We were playing Ole Miss in Oxford, in a game that is probably best remembered for David Palmer replacing an injured Jay Barker and putting on a show that had Heisman voters buzzing. Sadly, what I remember most was getting off the team plane and calling home. Charlotte didn't answer and I began to panic and started calling some of our neighbors. I finally reached one of the neighbors and she went to the house and found Charlotte just staring ahead. I don't think Charlotte ever answered the phone again.”

He has lost language and gained singing... THAT makes for more fun. What amazes me is that so many times he returns and talks and seems to think like he used to. His voice and laugh returns to normal. How can that be???”

“For me as a spouse of a husband who is sexually competent, this is a big issue for me. Not because I desire sex, but because he does. He has become like a child in many ways. Yet, even as his abilities and personality diminish, he still wants us to act like we always have as husband and wife.”

“-أنظر يا أبي، هذا سور الحديقة الذي بنيته بيديك = صحيح، سآخذه معي -لا يمكنك أخذ السور معك! =هذا أمر في منتهى السهولة -هذا مستحيل يا أبي =سترى -أبي، أبي بالله عليك! هذا مستحيل! ربما من الأفضل أن تخبرني كيف ستذهب إلى البيت، وأنت فيه بالفعل. =لا أفهم قصدك -أنت في البيت وتريد الذهاب إليه، ولا يمكن أن نكون في البيت ونذهب إليه! =هذا أمر واضح -إذن ماذا تقصد؟ =لا يعنيني ما تقوله كثيرا بالقدر الذي يعنيك.”
