then--stuggle with his episodes, stuggle with how to help him, and
struggle with blaming herself for causing it. The doctor's say "no
known cause" for the disease, and she still has to look for one, and
at times has felt it is her fault.

lots of statistics,a nd of course, I have Lori and Mike's experience
to draw on. I've interviewed both of them already. If it's not a
problem with those of you here, I'd like to jsut get to know a little
more about how this disease affects patients and caregivers by
listening to what you say. But if that makes you uncomfortable, I
will leave the list.
