Greg, you and your wife make a handsome couple. You are both too young for this disease. I was 60 when I got it, now am 69. I didn't see the leader of the opposition, but will look again. I don't know what MGH is, but you two as a couple kind of remind me of Barbara and Niles Jensen, who met in Santa Barbara at a PD support group when they were both in better shape. They went back to the UK and Barb used to call me from there quite often. I can't find here now. Her voice was very bad and mine was OK. Now its like hers. She was very depressed so I hope things aren't worse, but I fear they are. Thanks to Diane Wysak's posts to me, I have met Sandy Price, a RINO from CA who lives next to me in Sun City near Surprise, AZ She is active in support for stem cell research and end of life choices. I emailed her to compliment her on an op-ed piece she wrote about how the religious right has captured the GOP.
