hi all

i will be posting a synopsis of the discussion
which took place on last sunday's "travels with parkinson's"
"endocrinology and parkinson's" show

in the meantime
here's an intro from the menopausal one:

--------------------------------------------------------

quiet

--------------------------------------------------------

quiet
the tide comes in
lapping higher and higher
no crashing waves
no boisterous energy
just

quiet
creeping
slow rising engulfing
almost comfortable
almost painless
but for my newly found knowledge
my awareness that
that it can feel otherwise
that in fact reality is otherwise
the chemical bath is almost enough to drown that thought
but not quite

quiet
i hang on
waiting knowing
joy
has not abandoned me
can not abandon me
is me still
quiet
