Hey everyone! Well, i'm taking a Criminal Psychology course this semester, and the other day I learned of a story about a real life Jonathan! We all know things like Jonathan's tumor happens all the time, but this story was too coincidental, i just had to share it! There was a man who was perfectly normal, loving, caring, friendly, etc. He suddenly started acting very aggressively, and would just go off on people, and hurt people, and he even killed 2 men! Well, his wife was adament on proving that something had to be wrong with him to have such a polar change in his behavior! so they scanned his brain, and as it turned out, he had a tumor that was pressing on the part of the brain that triggers aggression, and he was let off the hook legally becuase of the tumor was responsible for his murders! They did the surgery, and after months of recovery, he was back to the great guy he was before! So just remember, while the "Rainman" SL is getting a little tiring right now, it's realistic, and someone really had to go through all of this!

WOW flail!!! I've always figured that there has to be someone out there that's going through the same thing that Jonathan is currently, and this just confirms my theory. Thanks for sharing!!!

Wow, that's tough on the victims' families to hear that their loved one could still be alive if not for a tumor. But very interesting to hear that "Jonathan" is out there!
