I'll put the name and address below; he would love to hear from his "old" friends. He is receiving good care at his "new home" and will have ongoing therapy, and they will keep him involved in activities. Delmar Gardens is a beautiful place, as you would imagine by it's name. The grounds are beautiful and the people who work there are great. Ted has been involved in a group of men who also have PD. They are from our church, as well as other churches. They have met on a regular basis over coffee to support each other and discuss the latest on PD. The wives meet together as well. Our church, Sunday School class, and particularly our family here, have been such a support. I don't know what we would do without them. Our home is very quiet with just me here now, but I do have my prescious Boston Terrier Uncle Dudley to entertain me. Ted's address is:
