There is this misconception that agony or mental illness is the mother of
invention
or creativity or "drive". Would Van Gogh ever been a painter if he hadnt
suffered
mental illness? Van Gogh did not paint during his spells of mental or
physical
illness. Well my FIL and MIL are both fabulous artists and he was happy and
mentally
balanced and PRODUCTIVE for his entire life. She was depressed and
unproductive
until treatment which unleashed her productivity and she is still going
strong at
80+.
There is nothing 'romantic' about suffering with mental or physical illness.
The point is to fix the genetic problem, not simply flush the egg. I am sure
a well
and healthy Steven Hawkins would be much productive over a much longer life
span. Not
that they know what causes LG yet much less fix it.
