FROM: LIND_DON/HPATC2_03@mailhub TO: SIGNALS/HPATC3_UM////////HPMEXT1/signals#a#teleport#f#com@mailhub ....................................................................... Dick, Thanks so much for the info. I will forward along to my mom who cares for him. He is due to get out of the hospital in a week and a half and am not sure how my mom is going to cope. Pulling him up is really a burden and they live in a split level (i.e. lots of steps). I have not heard that bp is an issue but it is nice to know about the issues surrounding that. Any thoughts on youself. Think you will be effected by PD? We are blessed that we can at least experience it second hand so we can better handle it if we do. My dad worked as a roving foreman for the electric utility. He spent a lot of time around big transformers and used lots of chemicals like MEK and trichloroethane. Also, we lived near Hooker Chemical company on Long Island which did major toxic dumping (sigh). I drank the water too so who knows. I will post both of these. Don Lind [log in to unmask]
