"It's amazing how a person can be above average like, say, Annette Funicello, and then suddenly they are undermined and they are no longer what they were. This is what neuro diseases do to people."

And that's a tragedy; but what I find truly amazing is how it often opens doors to becoming a better person and friend to those who need one.

Like you Mariel You've had some major challenges in your life and yet here you are, compassionately taking the time to help others with theirs.
Thanks. It means more than I can say .

With love, Erika
