welcome to my world and this new voice of mine i have had parkinson's disease (pd) since 1988 and have also been dealing with clinical depression (cd) for most of my life in july 1995 i joined the internet and then i joined an online pd support group (cleverly disguised as a cyber-family) both events changed my life and then i discovered that i love writing including all the learning that is buried in it for me as a result, this volume is comprised of over 150 e-mail messages sent to my pd support group pals online (aka my 'cyber-siblings') as well as to my family and friends these messages unprecedented (in me at least) poetry and prose pieces along with a few humour items just to keep us all on our toes speaking of digits, most punctuation and upper case characters went awol in my early qwerty years mainly due to pd and its effects on my peripherals i don't miss them one bit and i don't think you will either if you come along and join me on my sixteen year trek into the cyber-light
