Kirk - I've been on the list for a little over one year. My love has PD/PSP, and sometimes I feel the urge to run and scream because I am so helpless. I find a great deal of pleasure in reading poems written by some of the same people like me - expressing themselves on paper, rather than with alcohol or drugs. Some of the messages sent are from people who have PD and must find some humor in life in order to even exist. CG's and PWP's hurt, deep, deep hurt, so those who write what you might think is non-sensical, is very important to the writer. Please be more patient, and try to understand where each of these writers are coming from and enjoy every aspect. . Jo Ann from Houston
