Lloyd, a coalition of patients, especially those who are very active in the community? Maybe.

In addition to what you have said, Lloyd, I would like to see PD visibility in the same fashion as so many other "well known" diseases:
  • PD Ribbon...multicolor, as in no two of us is alike...or something similar to autism puzzle pieces
  • Like MS and other diseases, donate at the grocery register, gas station, etc...get that paper thing you write your name on and the store hangs it in the window
  • Joint effort by the major PD organizations/foundation for TV awareness campaign...cancer does it all the time (that is if the major orgs can actually come together and do anything)
