There was incidences of being in bed,

choked to the point where, turning blue

and trying to get my hand in-between my throat

just so I can get a breath because he was in a deep sleep,

thinking that he was fighting with the enemy,

and he was fighting with his own wife.

And that, you know, that scared him enough to say,

"Oh, maybe there is an issue there."
