Dear David, This PD is different with everyone, I would like to say though that I am almost 55 and was DX in 97 and am taking care of my grandson whom is only almost 6 months old and will soon add another grandson to my granny's daycare. I am doing quit well if I do say so my self. I do get stiff at the night time though so off to bed with me. The two of you should do quit well with the little one. They also keep you so busy that you do not fine time to worry about this PD.
