PWP  stands for people with Parkinson's. No more, no less. I wonder,
however,  how long it will stay in use.  Its easier just to use the
collective noun "Parkies,"
though suppose "PWP" is a bit more elegant. The trouble (for purists?)
is that
one has to put an "s" on the end for it to sound right: it wont do to
say "all the
PWP I know  are...."  even though saying  "all the PWPs I know are..."
is equivalent to saying  "Peoples with Parkinson's...."  The upper case
P  is  OK ,
I guess, for both PWPs  and Parkies so long as one is consistent in such
usage.
