It behooves anyone who takes the forum seriously to read this book. You can't fully understand the potential here unless you know what has been accomplished by the people in this thread. We have the potential to create quite a leadership, which translates into quite a following.

I know it's hard to focus and hold the book etc etc but this one is a must. It's not one person's story...it's the whole thing - you just have to read it...i so hope you do. We had so much of what he needed because we were living it as he wrote it. This is an accurate book and we all made incredible discoveries and inroads - Tom living a parallel life in the UK, where GDNF was the most successful. Then there's the Univ of K - in the US.. Tom has gone on the radio, written books, walked for ages, video taped the patients, and we all came together at the World PD congress in nyc. Nick Nelson, author, came to PDpipeline project table, saw Tom's video on my laptop - before and after GDNF - Bristol patients with Gill. And decided to write this book instead of taking a job with a Texas TV station.

You will not regret reading this book. It could be a textbook - required reading for a class
no agenda here - my agenda is your agenda

adding this facto that may not be known by some or forgotten by others.

Did you know:

that Jaye was the person to discover the infamous video of Amgen's Roger Perlmutter online saying they wouldn't make money on GDNF but they would go ahead with it anyway ....and Perry Cohen delivered the video to 60 minutes?

Also want to make clear: people aren't named - referred to as a reliable source, etc. Some are named, but it is a serious attempt to be impartial. Hard to do when only one side would talk to him.
