I am back on line and on the list after a month and since moving to an apartment. i had been living with my son and his family (in my house) and as my disease progressed and my daughter-in-law's dependency problems became worse they became mentally and verbally abusive. Although I don't really feel that I should live alone (I fall a lot) I do not wish to live without dignity. I feel that this is a common problem that we just don't talk about very much. I do definitely feel that no one understands our disease as well as we do and I hear that a lot from other patients. Anyway I am glad to be "out" and "back"! carol gray ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
