I'm still at the Institute, of course. We're hoping to initiate a capital campaign to raise several million dollars over the next couple of years to buy the building we now lease and to build our endowment up to insure funding for a half dozen critical pieces of our organization. That will keep me off the street corners! I'm also trying to finish a master's degree at Stanford and keep my own excellent 'significant other' relationship going. I'd forgotten that you have a son: you can't possibly be old enough for him to be 28!!!!!!!! -----Original Message----- From: Terrie W.

I love Geminis. I have been on disability since April, 1992. As you know I was the Patient Advocate for Emory's Movement Disorder Program for 4 1/2 years - a program that I created. I was terminated about 4 months ago due to serious financial problems within the department. . I moved to New Jersey about a year ago to be with my significant other, a man who also has the blessings of Parkinson's. I am doing some fund raising, working with the local support group with exercise and continuing to work on the book that I've been writing for 3 years now. You know, just participating in life can be a real challeng in itself - for all of us. All things considered, I'm dong very well! How and what are you doing?
