Dear Joan, It was good to see your review. You did not mention it, but there is an accompanying book which goes with the video too. I agree entirely with your assessment of the video. It is something we have all been hiding under the carpet. I was at the Conference when it was launched and the speakers (stars) gave a very good session before it was shown. They are an amazing group and I am moved by what they have achieved. I too have made a video called "A Special Home for Bob" which I will be telling you all about shortly. Sincerely Joy Graham >It has just been my privledge to view and to review the video: "MY >SPIRIT STILL SINGS" which is being produced for distribution by Young >Parkinsons' Housing, Inc. This is a first rate video and I can recommend >it highly. >Here is my review of the video: > >Review of the video: "MY SPIRIT STILL SINGS" > >It is eye-opening, thought provoking, and gut-wrenching; this video >presented by the Young Parkinsons' Housing, Inc. of Australia.
