i had the pleasure of speaking with the charming donna dorros the other day and would like to remind everyone that it is time to start thinking about nominating someone for this year's dorros award. last year, if you remember, no one was nominated and the award (plus the $5,000 in prize money) went by the wayside. if anyone out there does not know about Sidney Dorros and the legacy he left behind, it might just be a good time to check out the archives and the PDF website to aquaint yourself with this remarkable man as his wife continues to do his good work. if you have an idea for a nomination for someone who has excelled at outstanding commitment and achievement to the parkinson's support group community, this is where to go to find out how to get the ball rolling. good luck one and all. http://www.parkinson.org/dorrosaward-2003.htm -- Joan E.
