Ivan, What is it with you? Haven't you already told this story. Are you trying to double your count.? Must you remain in the news? A couple of months ago Barbara Patterson warned us off any in- fighting but you keep digging up old bones. I put the issue to rest or so I thought. I think I understand you yelling fire in the crowded church. You really believe that some politican is going to be moved by your retelling of this story. WRONG! I do recall one fragment from the past and that was an accounting of Jack Kevorkian's "patients.". Of the 85 on the list only 2 were diagnosed as having PD: 17 with MS, 5 with ALS, the rest with cancer or multiple illnesses. The two with PO were well into their 70 so I doubt that they would count as young onset PWP You are free to read this information in what ever manner you wish but my reading is that most of us who make the choice to live due so because we are a bunch of tough sons [and daughters] of bitches. I personally believe in a persons right to self determination and when I made my choice I decided to get angry and fight this illness and I'm doing fine. This past Tuesday I had my first horse back riding lesson and it reconfirmed my choice. Do not sell us short, Ivan If you choose to respond to this note please leave out your love for me routine. That wears a little thin some days. george
