dr .who
 
i get a little leary at the ones who insist being called Dr. when they aren't teaching in a college or researching,or publishing at least. i find myself immediately wanting to get them to laugh, show some humor, drop the academic demeanor. it's pretty boring sometimes.

mostly, i don't see those things anymore, just people, everyone deserves respect, that's one advantage of being so frail and sick, people are just people. they equally can't hear a word i'm saying, they all call me honey and sweetheart and pet me. that's ok too. life is too short - just go with it. they kiss me more than ever too and tell me they love me....it's one of the few rewards of becoming underweight. i used to be kinesthetically defensive - don't touch me!

but i hope this-topic - premature menopause can be thoroughly investigated on pdor, because many aritcles have to be purchased,. linda h. and laura, i have other urls so maybe you can get them thru the library. college librarians have provided me with multiple degrees worth of info over the years thru pipeliner emails. now we have another with laura.

this might be a poster topic for me. hormones and genes and age at natural menopause. one study actually says people with lower cognitive skills have more early menopause. i shouldn't have nursed and stayed pregnant for 4 yrs? that was stupid....lol..just kidding,,,wouldn't have jess if i hadn't. i have a beautiful family.

answers can likely be found thru genetic testing up to a point. Then we have to include the soul..and look within at where it's our fault a hurting or hurtful heart and soul will make you sick....i do think things as serious as pd can be brought on thru the emotional and physical sequence of multiple events that cause chaos in our central nervous systems.

we become mindful of what we let in. and of who we are. ok no more or i'll have to title this with a sinemet overload alert.

so much to say and learn and study, so little time.

its personal and of course i want my daughters to not go through this. and to know the risks.

i'm off to mail my SPIT! video at 11.

Please dont be intimidated by degrees, you know PD and its effects better than any one who hasnot experienced but just read about them.
Just yesterday, I bought a coffee mug that says
"When your BS doesnot get you a job go for Ph.D!"
There is some truth in there!!!!

PS: My fellow Ph.Ds, apologies if I offended anyone! I thought it was funny!

"Kudos to you for registering at PD and jumping in with patient experiences! I'm too intimidated by all the PhD's.

Regards,

Laura
