Sheeesh! Hey Youse guys! Don Berns, can pull rank on ALL of us "Holes in the headers," including moi (a lowly unilateral member of this club), 'cause HE had his bilateral pallidotomy over a year before mine and mine was over mine, and mine was done over 5 years ago! In fact, Don went SKY DIVING within about 6 months post surgery, and I've gathered from talking to mutual friends, Don's still enjoying the benefits of that blessed surgery. WAY TO GO, Don Berns! AND way to go to ALL who struggle to live a "normal life," whether by surgery or PD related drugs. We ALL deserve mutual "ATTABOYS" for doing our best to lead full and fruitful lives DESPITE this steeeeenkin' disease!!! <Saluting ya all> Barb Mallut (back to packing for my upcoming move) [log in to unmask] msn.com -----Original Message----- From: Marty Polonsky <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Date: Sunday, November 07, 1999 12:11 AM Subject: Re: UPDATE ON PALLIDOTOMY >George, >Pardon my presumptiveness re the hole-in-the-head T-shirt flap.
