38. WTF? Forced out because of dementia is saving face?

What planet does that happen on?

Not this one. All his business and kid's business will tank from that humiliation.

And they all know it so they'll do everything they can to cover for him.

If it gets too bad they might fake a heart attack or something to give him an out because of his health, but dementia will never be admitted.
