Some friends invited us to a dinner theater last night. I'm always a little aprehensive when going to a new place. I did the ususal: Where are the bathrooms, will someone go with me if I need to leave, etc. Things were going well until they made an anouncement before the play started. "Please don't get up to leave for any reason. All the actors use the entrances and exits so, unless it's an ememrgency, stay in your seats so you don't get in the actor's way." Could they have said anything worse to someone with PD? I felt like I wanted to escape while I had the chance, before the play started, but I didn't. I stayed and watched the whole thing. A few deep breaths and some reasurance from my husband was all it took. I still can't believe I did it.
