In response to Mike's comment above, I just wanna say I think there is a progression still happening, albeit a less dramatic one than Patrick's regression itself. The Mrs. Simmons crush is the latest instance of his realization that in some ways, he's acquiesced to/trapped in his situation but his adult desires and ability to ruminate on his state of being aren't totally obliterated. I feel like the dramatic propulsion now is more psychological than the physical descent into incontinence and loss of speech/motor skills, so I'm eagerly waiting to see whether he fully lets go of his adult self (simultaneously attractive and nightmarish, to me at least) or whether what remains of his independent ego will assert itself and regain some control. (How much control he'll ultimately want/physically be able to get back is also driving my curiosity here). All this is to say, I'm loving the story Pamperdk, keep up the good work!
