Moot-

Someone actually came to my house with that condition.
And it's something once you see it -
you never forget it, I can tell you.

This man was in his forties
but had the awareness level of maybe a ten year old.
He had little if ANY perceptual function in reality
everything - EVERYTHING
was imaginary.

And he was still drinking.

I couldn't help wondering
who he might have been.
who COULD he have been.
OTher than what was in my living room.

You don't get over wet brain.
It's permanent damage.

Hope that helps.
