Jay and all: Your very accurate & descriptive piece about the ravages of pd has shaken me out of my self-imposed retirement to the list. All I can say is: Right-On! Right-On! Right-On! I can empathize with your feelings only on a different level: while you feel out of synch while needing to fulfill your personal relationship; I am feeling badly because I can't be at my son's Pinewood Derby tonight with my husband & daughter. Thanks for your perceptions on this ordeal. -- Joan E.
