Dee,
     My name is Paula.   I am 48, 11 years with PD, and had DBS 10/30/00.  I
know what you mean.  I used to run my own restaurant (seating 180 people)
with nearly 100 people on the payroll.  Now I think instead of tunnel
vision, I have tunnel brain.  I put water on for tea one day  and answered
the phone, totally forgetting the water on the stove, resulting in a steamy
kitchen and needing to buy a new tea kettle. I often can't carry things in
my right hand if I have something in my left hand and am trying to get
somewhere with these "things".   It's a crazy disease.
 Paula
