My uncle had a nervous breakdown 7 years ago...thought he was talking to Jesus and Mary in the backyard. Shock treatments, medication, etc. ensued. A few years ago he calmly remarked that he doesn't go the speed limit because it's too slow. Nowdays he's borderline catatonic.
My sister moved in with her lesbian lover at the beginning of the year. They intend to get married in CT in October. I'm happy for her, but she'll be dragging me and my parents 3 states away for a ceremony with a meaning that will be legally meaningless when they come back.
