RE: your ad on pp. 24-25 of the June 26, 2006 issue of Time Magazine. What a sensitive and touching message.

Those of us who have personally witnessed the devastation of a disease like Parkinson's know about the silence, the debilitation, and the lost hopes and dreams. And to think about the hope that such new treatments give to those whose talents have been sacrificied to this disease is so comforting.

It is my theory from observation that Parkinsons' affects individuals with high intelligence, successful careers, superior social skills, and much talent - that doesn't have to and shouldn't be lost to us or to them.

To convey this message through the imagery or music which probably brings more joy and hope than any other medium to the world was brilliant. Bravo!!
