Due to his wifes suffers from brain disorder, the jaguars head coach desires to leave.

In a guest post that appeared in the New York Times on Tuesday, former coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Giants Tom Coughlin disclosed that his wife Judy was given a progressive supranuclear palsy diagnosis last year. This brain condition impairs the ability to walk, talk, think, and control one’s body movements.

The illness has no cure. Coughlin, who won two Super Bowls with the Giants after serving as the Jaguars’ first coach from 1995 to 2002, stated in the column that his wife’s condition has steadily gotten worse over the past four years.

“We have shattered hearts,” Coughlin wrote. “For our family, Judy has been everything. We have watched helplessly over the past four years as she went from being a kind woman with a gift for conversation, giving hugs to everyone she met, to met and giving them the impression that they were the most significant person present, to practically losing their ability to move and speak.”

After 54 years of marriage, Coughlin and his spouse have four kids and eleven grandchildren.

Tom Coughlin is providing care for his wife Judy, who has a brain illness that is incurable.
According to Coughlin, he has been his wife’s primary caregiver, and the best thing that others can do is show respect for those who take care of their loved ones in this way.

“Judy’s decline has been nothing but gut-wrenching and has placed me in a club with the tens of millions of other Americans who serve as a primary caregiver for a loved one,” he said. “It’s true that switching from working for an NFL team to being a full-time caregiver wasn’t simple. It’s still challenging.
