Uh oh...I see a new excuse for why men had an affair.

All kidding aside, this story is strangely sweet.

Well if the guy is out of his mind and somehow finds some way to be alive a little with the stranger, then I see why his wife is OK with it.
What can she possibly do, her husband, the one she married is really dead as a whole and little bits of him die mentally daily I guess.

She has my sympathy.

Shame on CBS for reporting a story such as this. Matters of Alzeimers should remain private family matters, unless the family releases it. And, I’m no fan of x Judge O’connor.

Couldn’t CBS allocate their resources a bit better? Yes, it is a bitter sweet story, but it is also a private one. Justice O’Connor has retired. She is no longer a public figure and she should be entitled to her privacy.

Oh, I forgot. The only people entitled to privacy these days are those who dredge the bottom of the barrel to bring us the news.

struck up a romance with a woman who is a fellow Alzheimer's patient and lives at the same assisted living center as him

And they get to fall in love every day.

Was this “news” written before or after the news writers at seeBS went on strike?

I know, I know, same chit, different day.

Two comments.

1. Pointless invasion of privacy.

2. 50 first dates.

Words fail me as to how sad and heartbreaking this story is.
I may not agree with Justice O’Connor, but I wouldn’t wish this hell on my worst enemy.

She retired to take care of her Husband....and put him in a home.

I guess I should be grateful she retired.

Sorry, but I ain’t buying anything in this article except “man forced into home, finds girlfriend”. The rest is BS.

14 years as a 24/7, single retired disabled caregiver helped me form that wonderful opinion. :-)

This is just a stupid article. Private and has nothing to do with anything. It's just embarrassing that the "news" includes the eccentric behavior of a man whose suffering from a debilitating disease.

I feel sorry for the Justice.
