NIH government spending is being cut like everything else. . PWPs have to do what they think they can do. For me it is writing. I agree, its wishful thinking. -----Original Message----- From: Ahamed Ismail Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2013 6:20 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Summit4StemCell John and others on above subject. Yes we need a cure and not just treatment. MJf's foundation is working on that research. however, join an advocacy group/organization that can get govt. support for cures research. What about Parkinson's societies? they can play a very vital role in first getting some govt. help for funding the expensive drugs we are on and $$s for cures research. This is wishful thinking because of vested interests of drug companies and others to keep the money flow coming. But there is always a begining.... ahamed > Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2013 01:04:45 -0700 > From: [log in to unmask] > Subject: Re: Summit4StemCell > To: [log in to unmask] > > I dont know how much you are talking about, but how about putting an > ad/video on u tube/craig's list/build a web site etc and ask for > donations.
