NOTES
After a pituitary tumor bursts in Mike Scalise's brain (diagnosed, by of all people a physician named Dr. Sunshine), it leaves him with a hole in head, and the hormone disorder acromegaly at age twenty-four. He also faces the exasperating challenge of navigating a new, alien world of illness maintenance among family, friends, and spouse. However, it's his mother, who has a chronic heart condition and a flair for drama, who becomes a complicated model as she competes with her son for the status of "best sick person."
