“He got an answer to what was wrong with him”

 Roger was a very ordinary guy who had many goals in life and it went great for him. He trained a lot and he had his own company but there was something wrong with his body, he was always very tired and there were things that didn't make sense. 

He was at the doctors a lot and 2009 he got an answer to what was wrong with him he got a very rare disease called Wilson disease. It settles on the brain and it affects the nerves in your body. He has medicine he takes now because it's an incurable disease and if he doesn't take it there is a chance that he will die. He doesn't get better or worse now because of the medication and that is good.


 He is copper poisoned and that means that his body doesn't get rid of it so it stays in his body instead of going out of it. There came consequences to this and some of them are that he can't swallow so he has an ostomy bag on his stomach because he got problems with his intestinal. He has a very hard time talking but if you have known him for a long time like me you will understand him perfectly fine. As long as he eats his medicine he will keep his disease in order. Now he has 2 children Vendela and Vanessa and he has a dog named Greger. Vanessa has a child so he has a grandchild named tore and he is 5 months old. He likes to go visit my family friend in gävle because he likes to be in the forest and be with animals. 


I don't spend much time with him anymore, there was a time not long ago where it was very difficult to spend time with him anymore and because of that we have slipped apart a bit and that is very sad. Last time i saw him he was at the hospital and had surgery because of his initials and it was very difficult to see because he was in a lot of pain but am excited because i am going to visit him soon and i am very happy about that.
