I'd almost forgotten that I'd created this discussion in the summer of 2024 about PN and its effects upon handwriting when only this morning I thought I'd share an amusing bit of overheard conversation about how "mysterious" handwriting is in the summer of 2025. I have large-fiber PN, so no pain (thank goodness!), but lots of troubling balance issues. My neurologist had warned me that, among far more concerning sign of PN's progression, I might notice my handwriting beginning to deteriorate. I'm old enough to still do most of my writing with pen & paper. Yesterday, I was sitting, sipping my decaf, and scribbling away with pen & Composition notebook in a corner booth of a local coffee shop when I couldn't help but hear a kindergarten toddler ask his father, "What's that man doing over there?" That made me smile; a silent laugh followed when I heard the boy's father answer, "I don't know, Troy. Beats me."
