Ivan- I think that using a number like 6 caregivers per PWP would be overdoing it- While it is very very likely that there are 6 people who would vote differently per PWP, if the only issue at stake were PD/ funding Udall, there are other issues too aren't they? In my experience, I've foung that voting is a very personal decision- and nobody wants to vote your way because of who you are. This does not mean that I don't care about PD issues. I know I am not explaining myself very well- but I do think that people will not buy these statistics. Sometimes overstating a problem gets you less attention-because the issue is summarily dismissed as being an exageration(sp?) These are my personal opinions- so please don't get me wrong. I've no voting rights in this country- and nor has anybody whom I can ask to weigh in in my favor.. abi > > Add to this estimated 3500 PWP's per District, approximately 6 family >or paid caregivers for each PWP.
