We're a community of people from all walks of life and different parts of the world. Like any family, we occasionally disagree, bicker and fight. Yet, in the end, we all suffer from the same illness and share many of the same goals. We all want to be able to enjoy our lives, our family and our friends as much as possible given the variety of nasty symptoms we endure; I believe we all desire to help others with PD, particularly the newly diagnosed; we all desire to move the science of PD forward; and we are all searching and striving to find a cure. I personally feel honored to be able to interact and learn from others on this site and appreciate everyone's participation and hope we can continue to bring on more active members with new and original thoughts.
