Thank you...Judith Dear List members, I have been walking a tightrope emotionally for the last few weeks. The loss of a friend due to what we believe to be too much manipulation of drugs has taken a great toll on all of us. As for signing off the list, I guess I just snapped. I think we are missing out on a lot of discussions about meds, etc. since the list was reconfigured to reply to sender rather than to the list. It's just easier for people to click "reply." I think the point I was trying to make was missed, probably because of a poor choice of words on my part. I wasn't really concerned about Ivan's post. I read a couple of lines and deleted (no offense to Ivan) but 'we've been there...done that.' I did the same with the responses to his post, and the posts about religious beliefs. They simply didn't interest me. I think the old list was a happier list. There were times when the chatter got a little out of hand, but I can delete with the best of them. I joined the list because it is/was a Parkinsons Information Exchange list, and as I said, with the new configuration we are obviously missing out on a lot of information that is being exchanged between members, and that bothers me. Thank you to all who wrote to me. When I have had time to get myself together, I'll probably be back.
