I think there were a few people that remarked on this, and I know Linda from the West Coast was one as well as myself. My husband has cognitive issues as a result of his PD and he is much like a child in that he doesn't quite understand that he just can't buy what he wants. He ran up tremendous charge bills on everyday items like cereal on sale and he'd buy ten of each flavor if the kids liked it, and other small things. He couldn't understand the debit card/credit card thing and used his debit as a credit card. Still, if he has a set amount of money, he will spend it immediately and has no patience for waiting on anything at all. I limit how much money he has because he does spend it so freely and unfortunately, his folks will indulge him in anything he wants most of the time, which makes it worse. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
