What Disease Does Paolo Have?
I'm aware that the actor Andrea Rossi has muscular dystrophy, but have the writers or directors of the film ever commented on what disease does the fictional Paolo has? It apparently is something more than MD or ALS, as it appears to have affected Paolo's behavior and thought processes in addition to his physical body. A German nurse mentions epilepsy at one point (possibly a mistake in the translation?), and in another scene Paolo has a "fit" after his father forgets to give him his medicine. Any thoughts?
