Stephan, you have (as usual ) made some very valid points. Let's not discount the very real problem of the world getting to be a harder place for all of us to live, regardless of having a condition such as PD which exaggerates the normal problems. Here are some phrases which represent unpleasantness to me: Downsizing, Tax hike, Uninsured driver, Old age, Nursing Home, Hospice, Parents without Partners, The Boss is coming to town, The BOSS wants to TALK to you, The BOSS does NOT want to talk to you, Unpaid Overtime, Unemployment benefits, Layoffs, Unhappy customers, Middle of the night phone calls, Unplanned business trips, staff reductions, water leaks, water shut offs, heart failure, homeowner meeting, crimewatch, ...............I know I sound like George Carlin on a rampage, but the point is, this is just a few things that bother folks, in a world that always had problems, but now it is getting tough for even optimists to get along. I have the highest admiration for people who continue to get by, and fight PD as well, without cracking up completely. Ken B
