....and that is the all-important reason for hope. It is easy to forget that our PD generation is like no other. Twenty years ago there was no internet and the brain was considered unable to repair itself. You died alone and in the dark with no hope. Giving up was the only option.
Consider how that has changed. Instead of waiting for the release of Death, all alone and little knowing what is happening to me, I can get up each morning and fight. I know a hell of a lot about PD. I have access to the greatest library in the world. The best researchers on the planet sometimes even answer my email. And a curtain is being pulled aside. There is the smell of revolution in the air and, if no one else will lead it, then I will. After all, I'm a damn Parkie! It is what we do!
"Never give up! Never surrender!"
