Frances had only just arrived at work when she received a phone call that turned her life upside down. Police officers had arrested her solicitor husband Andrew over allegations he was defrauding clients and were searching the family home they shared with their two children. Hundreds of thousands of pounds belonging to his clients, mostly elderly and unwell, were missing, and Andrew had reportedly spent the money on adult webcam sites, sex workers, and antiques. This troubling situation, which began 12 years ago, was later linked to impulsive behavior caused by medications prescribed for Andrew's Parkinson’s disease. After his sentencing, which revealed a complex interplay of mental health, addiction, and family tragedy, Andrew's impulsive actions had devastating consequences for his family, including impacts that led to severe mental health crises in his children. Frances's testimony highlights the significant risks associated with dopamine agonist medications, which, although commonly used for Parkinson’s, can lead to impulsive behavior, often without adequate warnings from medical professionals. Now calls for better regulation and warnings are more urgent than ever as families continue to confront the aftermath of such devastating experiences.
