Interesting how there seems to be many symbols out there in the form of a pin. The lavendar ribbon pin I received seems to be the same as Camilla's. The one I got is from DuPont Pharmaceutical company. It came with the following poem: The Caged Bird is Free The door has been opened The caged bird is free No longer a captive she flies, Released for a time from the bonds that have held her She stretches her wings and enjoys. She'll come back to her cage When she's weary and spent, In need of a sheltering rest, Content in the knowing She's dealt with the world And free to confront it at will. composed by Margaret F. Moylan, Herkimer, NY published by Parkinsonian Publications, Tyler, TX 1993 c collection of poetry titled: Symphony in Counterpoint, An Overture to Hope I take is as a symbol of hope, perhaps universal for all people. My mother will be having a pallidotomy at USC in the next few months, and I thought such a symbol wouldn't hurt. Debbie
