Marjorie... YOU GO, GIRL!!! <BIG smile> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange On Behalf Of Marjorie Moorefield Sent: Monday, April 28, 1997 5:25 AM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: BILLY GRAHAM At 09:58 PM 4/27/97 -0400, you wrote: >Friday, April 25, on the ABC show 20/22 Hugh Downs announced that Billy >Graham would be interviewed this Friday night on 20/20.

Even >St, Paul made personal reference to his "thorn in the flesh." ____________________________________________________________________________ _________ Yes, and St. Paul's affliction was not PD!!!!! I will not do such a thing as you asked, and would hope that common courtesy will prevail on the Net, and we let a person have their own freedom. Rev. Graham has had PD for a long, long, time. Has it ever occurred to you that at his age and in his advanced stage of PD he just might not have the physical strength to answer all the question which would be posed to him about his PD? Give him a break, he has done so much for Christianity in the world, now let the poor man enjoy the rest of his life, however he chooses to do it. IMOHO, I don't think the inquiring mind has the right to know EVERYTHING!!!! We all have PD and Billy Graham , The Pope, nor Janet Reno standing up and proclaiming they too have PD, is going to make one bit of difference on how any of us feel when we get up in the morning. As Ever, Marjorie Moorefield just another librarian, with PD 64/9 I have to work 8 hours today, which is a normal work day for a librarian. It is also finals week for our college students. Maybe you'd like to volunteer to tutor some students instead of watching so much TV???
