Hello and thanks to Mary Ann and Peggy and all of you who wrote such encouraging words! I do still have some time left, and I need to focus on that. I wanted to say that I have just finished Saving Milly and found it to be very informative. She certainly had a spirit that nothing could destroy, though Parkinson's came close. I would recommend it to those who haven't read it. However, I did have to put it down for a day or two and then take it up again like the idea of having Parkinson's--when I could accept it. I had to take it in kind of slowly in other words. But I am newly diagnosed and the whole idea is still hard for me to swallow, so to speak. Thanks again, Monica ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
