Dear John Park: Which Parkinson's Foundation put out the paper on pallidotomies? There are four, which of course shouldn't be. There really should be one powerful well run PD organization making sure all grants and donations go to important phases of Parkinsons - research, education, etc. We now have: Parkinson's Disease Foundation United Parkinson Foundation National Parkinson Foundation Michigan Parkinson Foundation California Parkinson's Foundation As well as: American Parkinson Disease Association Think how powerful we'd be under one umbrella.
