I got to know a really sweet man who turned out to be mildly retarded. I became very attached to him. When he went missing, I was distraught. I told my boss about him, and he informed me that this man was a ‘Mental Patient’ and had been taken away. I was so frantic and upset because he was a beautiful person and certainly was not a candidate for a padded cell.
