This is powerful & well written. Learned a lot, and have a deepened curiosity to learn more. This also sheds an interesting perspective as far as how/why he & Norma Jean connected like they did.

Wow. This is a testament to those very strong constitutions that lie in people who push through struggle. Some find reasons not to persevere and others only seeing reasons to keep going. 💪🏼

Very well written in fact I read it twice, my father was a JFK researcher so I was aware of his day to day battles but did not know how grave they were. Thank you.

This is so nicely and cogently written. I’m in the Kortisol Klub too, since my stem cell transplant. I was on prednisone for three years, trying to keep GVHD at bay. Several other very expensive meds after my release from prednisone hell. Geez, what that shit did to me…!

But I live!! I love science and those who promulgate it. Working through it, as I hope you are. I loved reading the advice for adrenal deficiency is sleep.

Oh, sweet Morpheus.
