Speculation is a dangerous game with marital troubles. But I must admit, when I first read that in the article, well, I won't say what first came to my mind because it's none of my business and I'll just get myself into trouble. It is indeed a sad thing that he is alone, trying to recover physically and mentally from his illness and the effects it has had on both states.
Bill you are too correct with that statement about divorce in the US. I knew a guy from when I was in high school and he was in a very bad motorcycle accident last year. As he lay in ICU in a coma, his bitch of a wife went and got an attorney to sue the truck driver that hit him, and also started to get divorce papers going just in case he was a vegetable. She said that she will not spend the rest of her life taking care of a vegetable, but felt she was entitled to money from the law suite because she was suffering from his state. It's a "me comes first" attitude all too often.
Bill, nothing wrong with your question because it's answer directly relates to his recovery, one way or another. I too wondered the same thing.
Excellent article and much more insight into what makes this musical genious tick. It is sad to read how me must be horribly depressed, not being able to sing etc.
He is from the old school. I bet the same one that Johnny Cash went to because these men keep going despite big mountains blocking their paths. 2 guys we all can take a few lessons from.
I just hope that he does decide to write an autobiogrpahy. For all we know, one could be well underway...
