There, but for the grace of God, go I

They’re dying. 
They have a disease that’s killing them – and wants him on his own, drinking. 
Drinking himself to death. 
It’s a terrible disease he has. 
And the irony of it is that it’s a disease that tells him that he hasn’t a disease. 
His body is telling him he’s dying – telling the world that he’s dying, and his brain is telling him to keep on drinking. 
And they don’t understand – sure what do they know!? 
It’s mad. It’s baffling. And cunning. 
But there’s hope.
