– Already in November, my father lost weight, but we did not see anything disturbing about him. He did a lot of sports, so it felt normal. Then he had lapses in memory, he began to “eat” the endings of words. Father’s friends advised to see a doctor. After an MRI, doctors concluded it was encephalitis or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease — says Bowie, the coach’s son.

After a few days of examinations, the doctor left no illusions.

– Unfortunately, you have so little time, we can count it in quarters – he said directly.

The coach replied, “Everything is in God’s hands anyway.”

– It was shocking news for me, but I had to be strong since he was my father. We all think that only the end of his life is over and the next life is about to begin – says the coach’s son.
