Dear List-family... After the last TV program staff's "no show" when I'd been invited to take part in a discussion 'bout PD, I must admit to being more than a little gun-shy when I received another invitation this afternoon to take part in an interview for the TV program "EXTRA," early tomorrow morning (practically the middle of the nite to ME!). I'll be filmed at Encino Hospital along with neurosurgeon and movement disorder specialist Dr. Robert Iacono, and fellow member of the Hole-in-the-Head-Bunch, Parkie Tony Schoonenberg, where we'll discuss pallidotomy, and Parkinson's in general. You can be sure I'll make every effort to comment about funding the Udall Bill.... AND our List, The program is scheduled to be aired tomorrow nite - Thursday, March 26. I've been told the only way I WON'T be on tomorrow's program will be if they EXTRA staff decides to film me for a separate segment on Parkinson's support groups, which would be aired on another evening. Sooooo... I'm either GOING to be or NOT going to be on the TV program EXTRA tomorrow nite, which is on TV at 7 p.m. in Los Angeles, and goodness only knows what time in any other city. Errrrrr.... I never learned how to program my VCR so will not be making a video of my 15 minutes of fame for ya all! <giggle> (Heck... I can't even set the CLOCK on that darn VCR!) <'nother giggle> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask]
