-- [ From: Bob Martone * EMC.Ver #2.5.3 ] -- To the list, I just received the March 10, 1998 memo from Lizzie Graham, Euopean Parkinson Disease Association ( EPDA) which included a video of the Parkinson's Disease World Charter. The 5 minute tape is one of the most powerful video's I have seen yet. It includes short segments on well know UK subjects who suffer or suffered with PD and also captures messages from the Pope, dignitaries from many Euopean nations Spain, Denmark, UK, France, plus Isreal, Argentina, Canada the USA and more. Luciano Pavaratti (Sp?) and Princess Diana also had signed proclamations and sent letters expressing concern for the PD community. From the US side of the pond I saw Robin Elliot- PDF, and Emillio Mendosa -NPF, in the video. Many thanks to our friends across the pond for a brilliant and moving attempt to get our community the recognition and support it so desparately needs and deserves. I do not know if more copies are available but this UK phone number was offered on the back of the tape cartridge. 0171-931-8080. If you can get the tape it will be well worth it.
