Peggy, Just now read your post from the 4th. AOL put it in my spam folder...why is it that "abilities" gets their spam sensors all atwitter and "viagra" leaves them sleeping? I too believe we are on the threshold of finding some great new aids or even a cure for PD and other neurological disorders...when the tipping point will come, who knows; but come it will. In the meantime we paint, laugh, enjoy music, write letters to and wave our arms at politicians; whatever it is that makes life meaningful and brings us joy. So here's to all of us!
