Thank you, Joan, for your kind words Yes, you describe a day in the life of a Parkie so well. The first thing is facing it. You have been on this PD journey longer than me, so you are the expert. I know you are and have been a strong voice in our world - why can't we get you on Donahue to speak for us? He claims he wants program ideas - I don't know how to make the contact. I"d like to see what Dr. Phil would do with our problems. Sometimes I feel like we are sojourners in a modern day Chaucer's CanterburyTales or Boccacio's Decameron, only it's PD, not the Plague. This journey is certainly worthy of media attention.
