Hi Nan,
Thank you so much for your kind words and support. It was wonderful to see how well our book was received by the attendees of WPC. All I can say is that I am fortunate to be part of this wonderful group of people of PCC. It was Paula who initiated this project and brought us all together. I wish she was there with us in Montreal to see the book in its final form.
I am writing this from Montreal airport after chating with a fellow PwP who knew Paula. I miss her and wanted to share my feelings with you all.

They are certainly as perfect as any book I've ever seen. If there was a five-star book on Parkinson's before this was printed, it is now a four-star book because this one is tops! Tonight I will spend another hour and then another and another until the book is finished. Then I will probably start over again. It is a must read for every PwP, every neurologist, every movement disorder specialist, everyone who cares.
While at the PDF meeting I suggested that a great project for PDF would be to write a book that summarized the Parkinson's experience in a way that PWP's and others who are interested would readily understand. That was before I saw the new book. The project is done.
