No doubt there are life crises and pre-existing conditions as well as true disorders (in a medical sense) to deal with. I don't think there is a person on this board that hasn't dealt with ONE of those things to some degree.
In the immediate aftermath it is hard to judge but once some time is passed IMO it is a character issue (be it laziness, arrogance, fear and so on).
I guess part of the reason I find Flo's H behavior BEYOND appalling is many of his issues happened to me and I certainly did not behave like he did.
I am sorry (VERY sorry) to hear that Flo's H has health problems and that he *may* need dialysis in the next few years. I also have an incurable disease that could shut down my kidneys at *any* given moment and I won't get the luxury of knowing a time frame. I learned of this disease SIX days after my dad died. You sack up and deal with it. You see a health crises counselor, you join a support group, you do *something* other than act like an ass and wreak havoc on the family YOU CHOSE TO CREATE!
I have never heard of a grown man that had so many sleep issues and did nothing about it! It is just crazy to me and the more I read about it the more my stomach turns! And once again he was ALLOWED to wreak havoc on his family for an issue that is (A) IMO more of an excuse and (B) something that does have remedies if you are willing to put in the effort.
As per Flo's posting this has gone on for YEARS! Many people live with medical problems and the death of their parents under horrible circumstances (um, I do!) and not behave like Flo's H does. It's ridiculous.
Either get help, find the appropriate support or deal with it but all this BS, well, it is for the birds IMO.
