I was one of Ladd's students during his final years of teaching. At that point, his mind had begun to "fray" as you say and he was noted for losing his focus. Several reviewers have commented on his Revelation commentary as not living up to the genius of the man. I can remember him dismissing class because he had mistakenly prepped for the the lecture he had just given the previous day! Yikes! One day he almost slid off his stool in the front of the class. During this time he also wept openly at the mental (?)affliction of his adult son. He could not reconcile it with Romans 8:28.
