From Andy Kaufman Revealed! by Bob Zmuda:"Kaufman continues to shake his head in disgust and disbelief that such a thing can be happening. I escort him around like a frail grandma. Lynne pointed out that he had gotten just like this when his parents were in town (L.A.) and perhaps it was some sort of an act for us. I had wondered the same thought and took note of the coincidences."
Why would a dying person need to put on an "act" if they were really sick? And what "coincidences" is Bob alluding to?
*There are several instances in which Andy's condition seemed to magically improve or deteriorate unbelievably, each eliciting befuddlement or doubt among his closest friends. Is this the natural course of terminal cancer that never goes into remission, or part of the roller coaster of emotions Kaufman used to make his death seem more legit?
