Part of what annoys me about Tebow is that constant praying. I'm not bashing his faith, but praying to win a football game is such a trivial matter. Like throwing yet another erratic pass is going to help the world.
I'm not really one for praying these days. I've never had a very strong faith base and religion hasn't ever been a huge guide post for me. And to be completely honest, I lost a lot of the little faith that I had when my dad was officially diagnosed.
Dementia is the most heartbreaking thing. Everything about it is just so hard. Slowly loosing someone over time, putting you in a revolving, yet never ending stage of grief. The helplessness of knowing you can't do anything. There are drugs out there that slow down the disease, and those are wonderful. But there's still nothing out there that can repair the damage or that would cure it.
Until soonish. Because this super pill could be a real possibility. Something that would fix memories and heal brains. Something to hope for, in a disease that has no hope. This pill, if possible, is worth praying for.
