hi boann,
you must realize this is a disease - that is unique to each PD patient,
we have a very good documentary with the link, at the end of my page -

"In Search of A Champion"
mostly the stories of the individuals and their loved ones, are most useful,
they are all told by the patients themselves. and will be helpful for you to watch, it answers your questions, so click the link.

also Congressman Lane Evans who is retiring from Congress after 22 years
of service, is also a PD patient... He speaks on the documentary.

we won many awards - the bronze telly -I believe is one of the collection.
