Have you ever tried to get the attention of the Parkinson community? 2. Did you look at the dictionary definition of 'foreigner'? Mine says a foreigner is 'a person from another country'...and since I'm in the US and I was asking for letters from "ANYONE outside of the United States" it would be from another country and therefor foreign to me. The List is not collecting letters, I am and I've only gotten 5 from around the world....and 3 were from Canada! Gail Vass
