Summary
We thought there was something wrong because he was unhappy – he’s normally a very happy cheery boy, outgoing, wants to be with friends, playing with friends. But he didn’t want to see his friends, even on weekends, for example, when he was able to, he didn’t want to. And just looking down and, you know we talk quite often, but there would be lots of tears and that was not like him at all. So, we realized that something was very, very different.
