Dear Murray and List Members, This is exactly what I received from my efforts. I wrote again and thanked them for representing their constituents. I noted that I also felt they represented all of us and that within their constituencies were victims of trauma, MS, Diabetes, PD, etc. I followed with a description of PD and what a member of their families might suffer should he/she be affected. I'd like to think that someone read my messages. More than likely, Congressional lines were probably so overpowered with messages they shut down! I think three senators' offices sent automatic replies, but I keep hoping that maybe.........
