The worst person in the world

An Affair To Remember:
Bob's family was horrified at the idea that his relationship with Dorothy might have become sexual. At his age, they wouldn't have thought it possible. But when Bob's son walked in and saw his dad's 82-year-old girlfriend performing oral sex on his 95-year-old father last December, incredulity turned into full-blown panic. "I didn't know where this was going to end," said the manager of the assisted-living facility where Bob and Dorothy lived. "It was pretty volatile." ...

Bob's son became determined to keep the two apart and asked the facility's staff to ensure that they were never left alone together.

After that, Dorothy stopped eating. She lost 21 pounds, was treated for depression, and was hospitalized for dehydration. When Bob was finally moved out of the facility in January, she sat in the window for weeks waiting for him. She doesn't do that anymore, though: "Her Alzheimer's is protecting her at this point," says her doctor, who thinks the loss might have killed her if its memory hadn't faded so mercifully fast.
He's not really the worst person in the world, but Bob's son is a definitely a contemptible piece of shit. If the article had named this bluenosed asshole, I'd be tempted to fly out there and slap this miserable cretin with a trout.

  1. Why do we, as a society, feel so compelled to force rules of behavior on others who's behavior is damaging NO ONE!?

    Here's another reason that this might have happened.

    If the two venerable folks in question had actually decided that not only do they love each other, but decided to marry... Well, the possible inheritance for the dipsh**t son might have been irrevocably lost in total or in part. THE NERVE!

    When I'm old and moldy, if I so much as get a whiff of this sort of behavior, I'm packing up and moving over seas to an undisclosed location.

    Hopefully, if I'm alone, I can find some smokin hot 80 year old who's looking for company too.

  2. Perhaps 'fuckhead-son' would be a better description-?

    Believe ME, if I found somone who wanted to 'perform-oral-sex' on MY 80+ year old 'member', I KNOW that I'd be happier than "hell" about the situation-!

    The son is an asshole.

    Poor dad.
