"You may be surprised that your sad face prodded a little boy to be curious and, therefore, caused his granny to reflect on your words. Maybe the granny has come across others who are, also, suffering from PD or other illness and this was the "straw" that moved her into educating herself about PD." Your story strikes me that this was a caring young boy who wanted to help someone with a sad face. Children are intuitive and it was not meant to be mean .... I think he cared and your response was wonderful. Virginia Christianse [log in to unmask] White Plains, NY
