A request. I have a freind who has moved to Danville, Va.
She dosen't know anybody in town except family and is very lonely.
Her Parkinsons' Disase keeps her from going out to meet people because of
the sudden onset of paralysis has her scared to go where nobody knows her
and would know how to help her.
Anybody knowing of people in the Danville Va. area who she could
associate herself with would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks...
