Diane and other PDrs, You're right. It's good to share. I'm amazed to read about persons who have had PD for years and years. I was diagnosed about seven months ago and am still waiting for the next shoe to drop. I don't want to belong to this exclusive club but am gradually acccepting it---gradually. I'm reading the list messages a little at a time. It does help even though it is depressing sometimes. This PD is nasty stuff isn't it? Patricia of DPYothers
