hello friends, I am so sad today. I have just learned that my friend, age 50/diag 5yr, died last week. I wondered why he had not called and when I called I learned that he had taken a fall in his home and hit his head. He was doing so well. About 4 months ago he had started on Requip and he was doing so well. He was happy with the new med and using his walker and cane less and less. This has hit me hard. I am so scared when I fall, and so glad there are people here with me. But, even if someone is with you, it only takes one fall and you could be gone. Sorry to depress you all, but I don't feel well and this is making me both sad and scared. Marling 51/5
