Much as I appreciate what you are saying, I must disagree. Calling my illness Parkie or Parky is my way of facing the world. It is my shield or security blanket if you like. I know its flippant but then so am I. If I called it PWP no one would know what I was talking about and that goes for me too. What the hell does PWP stand for? The only way I deal with old Parky is to laugh on the outside, and cry a bit on the in. So you see I could never accept PWP it wouldnt be any good for my image...lol Keep smiling folks [log in to unmask] (Nancy Stephenson 50/12)
