All, I am doing well and am enjoying retirement and my afternoon naps. I am in great spirits. I find that the ability to operate the mouse and keyboard, and my cognitive functions related to short term memory, multi-tasking, planning, thought processes, and task completion, along with chronic fatigue continues to progress, and are my biggest challenges. What used to take me 60 - 90 seconds to craft and send an email, now takes 10 - 15 minutes, and 45 - 60 minutes to write a one page letter.My back pain has significantly decreased however, my rehabilitation will take 12 - 18 months to build up strength on my right side which, is the same side impacted by my Parkinson's Disease. I am truly blessed and much better off than many other people. Cindy continues with great support. I have given up driving on longer trips, and limit myself to a 5 - 10 mile radius from our home as my right eye movement has decreased so, any trips over 10 miles Cindy does all the driving. I miss many of you and I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. God's SpeedJohn Peres
