This is a true Parkie "blessing", Joan-- I've read on this list that PWPs can only do one thing at a time, and I find this true for Peter also. It is hard for YOU and probably also for your family to accept and live with this-- and maybe if you "reframe" it as "focusing" it helps a little--but it's still scary and frustrating---anyway, it IS "PD normal", FWIW.
