I know the MSM is going to want to spin this as being the fault of a MAN on STEROIDS. But unless a person has experienced it themselves they just have no idea the stress of having an autistic child. It is overwhelming at times. And there are some people who just can’t handle letting go of every hope & dream they had for their child. Because it ain’t happening. Autism is bad enough but add Fragile X & that’s going to make a rough situation for any family. Chris may not have been able to cope with the idea that his son would not be following in his footsteps. Because of genetics I’m wondering if he blamed Nancy. If I remember right a father cannot pass Fragile X to a son.

I have a feeling this had a lot less to do with steroids than with a simmering pot that finally boiled over & Chris took the coward’s way out.

I agree. There clearly must have been a catalyst. But it wasn't cycling steroids.
