What ever became of this? ________________________________ From: Rayilyn Brown <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Thu, September 30, 2010 6:57:46 AM Subject: Breakthrough - Possible Cure for Parkinson's From: American Parkinson Disease Association Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2010 3:00 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Breakthrough - Possible Cure for Parkinson's Home | Related Links | News & Updates | Donate Dear Rayilyn, A new discovery promises real hope for a cure — the kind of hope you kindle each time you help in the search for a cure. While today's best drugs only temporarily ease Parkinson's symptoms, researchers at Johns Hopkins have discovered a drug that halts the disease 100 percent of the time in mice! Researchers say the drug prevents Parkinson's in mice by blocking a mutilated enzyme that kills brain cells. It took two years of combing through 200 experimental drugs for researchers to achieve this breakthrough. So it's urgent to keep up the momentum for a cure when you support APDA today! The potential of this discovery is truly incredible! APDA is overjoyed after investing 50 years of work and $30 million in research! Not only could this new drug halt the progression of Parkinson's in people who've already been diagnosed, but it could prevent its onset for those who are genetically predisposed to get the disease! But while this breakthrough holds great promise, so much work remains to be done! Researchers anticipate another five years of work before the drug could move into trial phase. That means the fight's not over! Ease the Burden for those who deal with the devastation of this disease today. And go the distance in the race for a cure when you give $10 … $25 … $35 … or more now! With Exciting New Hope for a Cure! Joel A. Miele Sr., P.E., President American Parkinson Disease Association Breaking News! Read the story that could change your life — or the life of someone you love who's feeling the impact of Parkinson's. Invest in a world without Parkinson's as you give $10, $25, or $35 to APDA now.
