M-P : […] Et puis quand même après à la maison il me dit, mais qu’est-ce que j’ai ? Il y a un problème. J’ai dit voilà tu sais, il y a l’âge qui intervient, le médecin parle d’Alzheimer, mais je n’ai pas trop insisté parce que LUI il dit : moi je n’ai rien, je ne suis pas malade. Puis effectivement, à part le fait qu’il porte un pacemaker, il n’a pas d’arthrose, il aura bientôt 96 ans, mais il marche… ça va bien. Il va bien autrement. Il dit : je n’ai rien. Alors, il ne faut pas bien lui parler de maladie, parce que ça va le perturber.
