Hi Ken B., Dr. Meyer, Romona, Helen, Debbi W, Arthur H, Don and VIvian, Barb M., Donna, B.Bruce, Mary L., janet p and concerned friends, Thank you for the suggestions and support. They've been very helpful. I'm back on the List after two days of being abnormally tired. My doctor examined swollen lymph nodes, and had blood taken.. The test results seem to be normal. The doctor is seeing me again today. Now, briefly about Ken's message......... This message to Charlie Meyer, M.D., is very, very accurate.... You know, for us VERY low-income PWP's on Social Security, change comes SLOWLY. Meanwhile, both a prominent local lawyer, and another one at a distance, have offered to help. Maybe I should sue the NPF for pain and suffering and mental cruelty, for $2,200,000.00, since the NPF can't seem to find me my $2,200.00. And guess what? Melinda Brown is "out of the office until Monday" (the Public Relations Director). Maybe she is going to lose her job, like Ken said. I guess the big brass at the National Parkinson's Foundation would rather antagonize me, instead of helping. It's a situation that makes me feel sad. I can only say that suing is not my idea of BUILDING A UNITED PARKINSON'S COMMUNITY If you call the NPF at 1-800-433-7022, and get put on hold, you hear the UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI recording going in the background, while you wait to get connected to the extension you have requested! So the NPF's claim that it is separated from the Univ. of Miami, and that it is the Univ. of Miami's fault, seems like a sneaky lie to me. There is obvious overlap and interconnection. Yours, Ivan Suzman 47/10
