Dear Fred Turner: Would it help if you knew that my father's family has a history of depression and some mental illness? Also, don't forget that he has several other medical problems in addition to his PD. You may be wise to take a look at your emotional behavior, but my gut tells me that keeping active on the "net", sharing your feelings with others on a regular basis is a very "healthy" emotional outlet. Whether you give a physical hug or a hug (or handshake) this way, you are still reaching out. I must tell you that my father always has been one of the "huggiest" and still is most of the time. No, his fate doesn't sound very attractive, but he still has a family who adores him and will go to whatever lengths to make sure he still gets some joy out of life. I hope my messages aren't bringing lots of people down. Maybe soon I can post some more positive views of the situation, like Joyce Saylor. Read you later! Betti Adams Betti S.
