Even if you could, he probably wouldn't know what to do with the time. Getting him to interact more with people his age will be good. Ones who aren't going to judge him for his illness. Plus, let him around James and Mark long enough, the boyish streak will rub off. I think the biggest difference between you and I is that I should have been born a guy. I always liked being dirty, it's why I got into Forensics. Max, my little brother, he's precious. He hates bugs or getting too dirty and screams like a girl. The alcohol thing is tough. Andy still gets cravings. He was drinking again when... well, we lost a baby, and it was really tough. He says it's a constant battle.
Andy's cousin Will seems to really have gotten through to him on some level, and it's special to see. Justin needs friends like that who listen to him and, like you said, don't judge him for being sick. Now, that's true. I'm as girly as they come, but I just have a bitch streak and a half. LOL. I've heard a bit about Max from Austin Shaw. He sounds like a sweetie. I wonder sometimes if they'll ever get to a point where they don't crave it, but in the end, it says a lot for them that they're still fighting to keep from giving in to the cravings.
