Bonnie Cunningham wrote in part: Dear Sherry and Brenda: I see that many people have already written and have given you excellent advise. I'd like to mention a couple of things, though. Read everything you can about PD but keep in mind that not everyone has the same symptoms and not everyone will progress at the same rate or in the same way. We (the National Parkinson Foundation) have numerous books that are available for free to anyone that wants or needs them. Let me know if you would like them, [log in to unmask] Bonnie Cunningham, R.N. Patient Services Director NPF Be sure and ask Bonnie for the newest updated version of "Parkinson's Disease: What You and Your Family Should Know". This book has an excellent glossary of terms that doctors, pwp(people with parkinson's) and caregivers/family and friends of pwp use and assume you should know the meanings. Ask also for a list and descriptions of other NPF(National Parkinson's Foundation) books, videos, etc. so you can see other materials you might want. Jeanette Fuhr
