My mind went in another direction with this. Some interesting finds I've made while searching the family history files. Uncle Louie listed as only being in the Army for 3 months. My mom says it was melancholy, if I'm recalling correctly. These terms come up on both sides of the gene pool. Melancholy, Hormones, Depression, Mid-Life Crises...

Some of the reasoning and terminology makes me cringe. What family members say and how they say it makes me angry. I don't really care. The people are long passed away.

The people now that are still alive and still speak poorly of some of these people and just where their afflictions took them rile me up sometimes.

Can't we just speak truthfully about these issues past and present..?
