Re: pd acceptance / "on-off" phenomenon

[Earnie & Barbara Knight <knight@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

perhaps this virtual conversation could be private?
since it appears to be private and personal?

i hate to listen in on someone's private chitchat

isn't this what you suggested????

why is it ok for you and not for others????

just wondering? i know, i know --another dumb question.

hi carole

i am sorry to hear that you are sick of pd today
is there any chance it might be connected to stress?
maybe the aftermath of your son's wedding?
or something else?

i've just had a classic reminder of how susceptible we parkies are to stress
whether it's the good the bad or the ugly...
i've just heard from my long lost daughter
confirming meeting each other for the first time in 33 years
(next weekend - gulp!!!)
and i turned into an instant statue!

i hadn't realized how excited i was till i started freezing up
and then i got into this "weird janet" routine [hmmm where have i heard that
before?]
of giggling at the excitement and snortling at the absurdity -
imagine my first conversation with her -
"how nice to meet you at last
sorry i cant walk or talk or move or think or nothin,
but it's all your fault!
hand me that sinemet would you?"

lolo!
welcome to my world!
