_________________________ Wendy Tebay's statement in her posting today that..."Perhaps neurologists in studying PD should all be teaming up with doctors who specialize in treating liver disease..." is right on the money, in my opinion. I also believe MY PD was caused by exposure to toxins (DDT) when I was just a baby. To cure and to prevent a great deal of the Parkinson's Disease that exists today and would strike in the future, an answer must be found of ways to keep these poisons from destroying our substantia nigra nerve cells. Likewise, I also agree with Wendy that some of the Udall funds should go to researchers of alternative treatments like detoxification regimes. The question is...Who do we contact to get more attention paid to toxin research and the liver's inability to rid our bodies of these PD-causing poisons??? _____________________ Janice Long (54/20)
