I don't think anyone is denying jumping on you Daisey? I'm not, nor do I "usually".

Re the thread you refer to I still think you sounded like someone who is not new to the board. maybe you are new ...in which case you can always choose to ignore me / people you don't feel have given you a fair chance, and you can claim the moral high ground.

Mau, I actually really like a lot of his covers he did on a recent album sounding as gravelly voiced as can be:)

I think the main problem is/was that whether Daisey was new as she claimed or not, she was still not particularly pleasant in her postings at the time. That made her sound like Amey so people jumped to the conclusion that that is who she is/was. wrong or not she did nothing to endear herself to other members by her attitude which was unfortunate. Both Amey and Daisey have an unfortunate habit of criticizing other members.

Maybe now we can forget that and accept that Daisey is who she says she is and proceed from there.

Glen campbell .is known by a lot of folks as is Terry Patchet who also has the disease .it does need more research & funds as it is a very cruel illness .it takes people dignaty & self worth .my Dear dad had it for 4yrs .i helped nurse him .it broke my heart to see a 6ft man strong & always active .to.be a shadow of himself . best wishes to Glen & family & everyone else who are living with this illness Barbra

I think it is one of the greatest fears of getting older that either yourself or your partner will develop it. I think they are doing a lot more research into it these days but they do need the money for the research and high profile people advertising the fact they have it wont do any harm.

I have listen to some of his music on u tube and yes l like it :))

WE ALL LIVE IN HOPE THAT A CURE FOR ALL DISEASES WILL COME IN OUR TIME,

ITS AWFULL A MAN WHO SUNG TO US FOR YEARS IS ROBBED HIS TALENT,BUT ORDINARY PEOPLE ARE ROBBED OF QUALITY OF LIFE AS WELL,AND ITS NOT JUST THE PERSON THAT SUFFER PARTNERS CHILDREN FRIENDS,ITS JUST AS HARD FOR THEM
COPING..

Well said Dizzi xxx

Perhaps before turning threads like these people should respect the topic.

Many of us have personal experience of living with debilitating diseases, whether ourselves or friend & family.

It is hard to see those we love suffering, so during these times it is important for us to have good friends round us.

Let us all will & pray that cures will soon be found , as Dizzi said.

Ive just also read that Peter Falk who played columbo has also died and also had the disease

Just reading that Tinkers, I remember him as many do for Columbo, but also for the film The Princess Bride, RIP Mr Falk.

Very sad for him and everyone who gets this dreadful disease. Or any disease. My husband got Alzheimer's at 51 years old - 10 years ago.

I agree with you Teresa, more money needs to go into the research for this.
