Bill Schmalfeldt is serving notice. It's time for Parkinson's disease patients to stop being invisible. It's time for a nationwide effort to raise awareness about crippling degenerative neurological disorder and the havoc it wreaks on American families -- approximately 1.5 million people currently have a PD diagnosis with 50-thousand new cases each year. Having had PD himself since 2000 at age 45, Bill volunteered for experimental brain surgery in 2007. He spins a humorous, poignant, sometimes angry tale about his life with this incurable progressive neurological condition. He will soon retire from Federal service and plans to use his remaining time, focus and energy to help fund the research that will find the cure. This book should be owned by anyone who has Parkinson's, the people who make the laws concerning funding for research of this disease, anyone who knows someone with PD, or anyone who might GET Parkinson's someday -- in other words... YOU!
