  Oh shit, Danny boy! That is so HOT! I love backseat sex, particularly in front of a voyeur. And thunderstorms make me horny as hell. I like your bottle idea too.

    Thanks a lot for reading and commenting, Peter! Yes, it’s tragic, and the worst thing is it is based on a true story.

  Yeah, losing one’s mind must be horrible! The number of people suffering from dementia is increasing, and I think the reason is not only the higher life expectancy nowadays but also depleted soils and incorrect nutrition.
  As always, thanks a lot for your feedback dear Keith!

  The world must seem a terrifying & surreal place when the mind drifts in & out of presence. This one aches

    Yes, Willow, this is certainly terrifying. And there are different clinical pictures of dementia. I think the worst is the one you consciously know that you are suffering from dementia but there is nothing you can do against it…
    Thank you very much for your meaningful comment!

  Beautifully aching. The suffering of the mind, suicide as a means of escape from that sorrow, and the ending was a good punch to the reader!

    Lots of thanks for your kind comment, Daniel!

  Yes, the topic is indeed disturbing but nevertheless it is important. More and more people have to or will have to deal with dementia.
  Thanks a lot for reading and commenting, Seacat!
