Some things stick in your mind and that's one of the things I remember saying to another person.

But I will see if I still have her phone number and I'll ring her up and see how she is doing. It's been a while. I don't even know if I still have her phone number.

She's in her 70's now but I remember distinctly that she functioned very well. It was not noticeable at all, and even after years, I think she only had it in her pinky.

But if I AM able to get any info I'll be sure to update here.

I'm sorry I can't be more help but I can tell you one thing. She was doing very well, either off meds or on meds. She took care of her husband and she had 3 beautiful baby grandsons and she would carry them around and she was an excellent grandmother.

I realize that no two cases are the same. She always said "I have a mild case"

Here's hoping you have also.

Take care,
