We need the drug companies and their research, certainly, and somehow it must be funded. However, if long-term illnesses like PD were cured, let's face it, they would stand to lose a lot of money. I went with my mother once to the pharmacy (this was at least 12 years ago now) and her meds plus my father's meds were nearly EIGHTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS -- for ONE MONTH. Most of the drugs were for my father's PD. The purchase was made by credit card because they had no insurance at the time.
