I have a dinosaur of a phone since I cannot manage the new phones with touch screens, and my typing speed leaves much to be desired. The dexterity in my fingers and hands has been compromised due to Parkinson's, making it very difficult to use the new hi-tech equipment that so many are using and rely on today.
I have
received several "Requests" to join Twitter, and I thank you all for
your invitations and interest. I hope you understand, but I have to draw the
line somewhere, as I spend much of my time and energy every day writing this
daily blog, once a week an article for The Huffington Post, and every e-mail I receive
from fellow sufferers or caregivers, I answer personally. I also do the
occasionally public speaking engagement to bring greater awareness to chronic
illness and in particular Gaucher and Parkinson's as I speak from personal
experience. If you have been following my blog and articles, you will no doubt appreciate
that I am not in the best of health (a British understatement if ever there was
one!) and therefore cannot take on anything more. This is why, after some
thought, I decided not to join Twitter - I'm sorry, but I cannot handle
anything more. I will have to leave the Twittering to someone else!
