I don't know why, but I feel in my gut (or head) that we are about to embark upon a new way of thinking about Parkinson's. And I feel it will require us joining up with other neurological illnesses. They have so many similarities.
And as Bryn pointed out, we need advocates - there is plenty to do! Even if you are wheelchair-bound, you have a job. I keep thinking of Railynn from Arizonia who posts regularly on the Toronto Listserv (PIENO). She lives alone and is in a wheelchair, but she is doing her part!
We're in this thing together!
