Dear Judith & Al. I am very sorry for your loss of your friend. From your earlier messages, we learned of his problems with pd & medications. I also remember you saying that one of the health care professionals involved with his care did not value the notes Joe's wife had made about his medications/symptoms, etc. Health care professionals with that kind of attitude should be given a pick and shovel (in Canada, that would be a snow shovel) and told to earn their living that way. Please let Joe's family and friends know that they have our sympathy.
