Hi Linda: This is a very inspiring history of PIEN. I joined the list by accident in the year 2000 or 2001 when I was first diagnosed with PD. Without the knowledge, compassion and comeradery of the PIEN members, I would have been lost completely. The info I gained, the encouragement I received and the friendship I developed in this cyber community helps me fight depresssion and gives me courage and conviction to face the next day and live a meaningful life. Also I can extend the same to the members at large. Linda, you took one small step and it has become a major beneficiary to millions of people all over the world. Happy 10th anniversary PIEN! God Bless you!
