Summary:
While working a case, Tony begins to feel sick, and then he wakes up with some startling symptoms. Luckily, Gibbs is there every step of the way.
Why You Should Read This:
This is a long, very realistic exposition on how someone like Tony deals with serious illness and permanent disability. He goes through layers of anger, depression, acceptance, and back to anger and depression again as he learns to deal with his new life. The only good thing about it all is that Tony’s illness is the catalyst that allows Gibbs to finally admit how he feels about him. There are no miracle cures, just adjustments to new realities, both good and bad. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
would you mind sharing the illness? I would appreciate it.
Sorry, didn’t notice your question until now. It is Devic’s disease, an autoimmune disease with some symptoms similar to MS. It has no cure but can be kept under a certain amount of control.
