"At first there was 'nothing' ...
occasionally Dave would say or do something slightly 'Odd', an aberration.
Very slowly I began to wonder if everything was all right, but his
easy smile and gentle ways of love and familiarity let me
find a rational explanation - after all, we were in the Himalayas'
and it was probably some form of altitude sickness; right? Later
we were in Australia, and I finally had to confront the fact that
something was very 'WRONG' with the man I love. The nightmare had
begun .....
This is the story of what happened in our lives, and what you read
here is a part of what we did about it ... what I have done for
him, my husband, my Dave". Dawn
