Margie & Dick:

Thanks so much for your reply.    I've confirmed with mom that her doc is
indeed a movement disorder specialist - apparently the only one serving
Winnipeg, Manitoba (Dr. Hobson).     We will be travelling in to see him
again in two weeks, in the meantime her GP here in Kenora has been advised
of the early result (negative) with Pergolide and we will update him daily
of her progress.      Will keep you posted.     Again, Thank you.

Norm.
