"Ever since I married him, he's been telling me about talking with God," she said. "He's seen colors before his eyes. He's seen people and animals." Dr. Vlodmanera Kumar, the leadoff defense witness, said Kallinger visited him at his office at Episcopal Hospital in Philadelphia three times between Oct.

10 and Dec. 31. During the first visit. Kumar said, Kallinger complained about pain in his arm and shoulder. The next two times, the witness said, Kallinger complained of a loss of libido, shortness of breath and a dryness in the mouth.
