Kathleen, your video is wonderful. You convey in just a few words the challenges and difficulties we face every day, and how they add up to become truly disabling. And you manage to be entertaining at the same time. How are the videos judged and by whom? Congratulations, linda www.pdpipeline.org ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Kathleen Cochran <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Subject: my entry in the film festival of the American Academy of Neurology Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2012 00:46:22 -0500 Hi all, I entered a video in the AAN's contest. There are 99 submissions, 5 minutes or less. I think mine has the distinction of being the shortest! You can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZW_6Fme4Shg&feature=BFa&list=PLEC0277EBDE4F84D0&lf=plcp - Kathleen (read on...) All the videos are listed by number at http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEC0277EBDE4F84D0. Mine is #58. Others about PD are: 1, 19, 24, 29, 33, 46, 53, 77, 92, 94. One that I found particularly affecting is #18--a 17-year-old with Tourette's talking about his condition. Interestingly, this young man had 2 DBS surgeries. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ml2eM9h3QMI&list=PLEC0277EBDE4F84D0&index=18&feature=plpp_video Those of us who hope for good news about stem cells may be encouraged by #36, which features an MS patient who made a remarkable comeback. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2VeFFMnZco&feature=bf_prev&list=PLEC0277EBDE4F84D0&lf<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2VeFFMnZco&feature=bf_prev&list=PLEC0277EBDE4F84D0&lf=plpp_video> =plpp_video<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2VeFFMnZco&feature=bf_prev&list=PLEC0277EBDE4F84D0&lf=plpp_video> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
