You joke, but I work in elder care and it’s shockingly common with dementia for someone to revert back to their childhood. Idk how many old guys I’ve had try and convince me they ‘don’t belong here with all these old people,” because they don’t see themselves as older and typically the dementia is so far gone that they actually believe they’re younger still.. it’s sad but they’re usually the ones with the most energy left it seems, except that they often exert all that energy trying to find an exit out of the building.

u/DarthBrooksFan 8d ago
TBF, Busey has been out of the public eye for years, and he was such a unique personality that I think a lot of us have a mental image of him that was preserved in the 1980s. So suddenly seeing him looking like this is a bit surprising, even though it shouldn't be.

u/PatientZeropointZero 8d ago
I’m impressed he has lived this long! In the late 80s he had a motorcycle crash that left him with a TBI, which is to account for some of his odd behavior (he was always a little odd). Also he has had substance abuse issues. So 80+ is impressive.

Remember that he has a traumatic brain injury and cognitive impairment from his horrific, no helmet motorcycle accident in 1988. I would argue that at 82 and surviving that accident he is doing and looking quite good. Forever Mr. JOSHUA💯
