Thanks Maryann. THis IS not what I thought my life would be like at 70 and I would like to speak to the person in charge here!!! Ever feel like saying that? ANd if you said it, did it make any difference? Just checking To everything there is a purpose. Okay, I long ago accepted that I have it, it being pd (and there is a reason it is in lower case) now, what do I do with it?? At first I said "I might have pd but it will never have me". Are you kidding me? It kicks my butt any day it wants, but to me, it is still in lower case. It is still how you deal with it, all about attitiude. It will be over when I say its over.....
