Re: Shot down again


Fellow Parkies,

Jim is 100% right.  Just because a drug company tries and fails to find a
treatment for PD, one cannot conclude that they are conspiring against us.
Thank goodness that Amgen and others are at least trying (despite the fact
that other illnesses provide larger and more lucrative markets).  Failure is
not a sign of bad intentions.  It's a sign that we have to pick ourselves up,
dust ourselves off, and continue supporting those who are trying to help us
(even if their motive is profit).  Tomorrow will be another day.

Failure is also a sign that somebody took a risk.  If anything's certain
about finding a cure for PD, people are going to have to take risks.  Let's
pray for courage for both us, PWPs, and for those who devote their careers
toward finding a cure when there is no guarantee that any one of them will be
the one who succeeds.

Rees Jenkins
