Like one of Ivan's Sussman's friends a member of a satalite support Group of mine volintarily gave up the struggle against his PD disease. The gentleman a doctor age 75 was in my opinion only mildily afflicted with PD but the apparent future to his mind did not justify his continuing existence. In retrospect no one in the group, his wife or family ever saw a manifistation that he was thinking these thoughts. He did leave his brain to PD Research which I had suggested to the group a year ago as a quest speaker. So something good may come of the situtation. Give strength and wisdom to those working for a cure. Dale Severance [log in to unmask]
