Msg for Carol Gray, I too am upset by the PD circumstances: It seems that any time I ask a "knowledgeable person" when they think a cure for PD will be available, the answer is "10 years". It was 10 years in 1992, it is 10 years in 2002. Also I don't understand why there are so many competing agencies that have a goal of curing PD. Why can't these be combined into a single agency and thus become much more powerful in representing us? (Actually I do know why). You've had 25 years with PD.... wow. I am amazed. It is a good thing to be angry I think. It is one way to keep fighting and survive. As far as your doctor(s) helping you, I think they need all the help you can give them. It really is a mysterious disease. A moving target. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
