Quickly becoming the Lewis Black of Parkinson's disease, Bill Schmalfeldt (Author of "Deep Brain Diary" and "No Doorway Wide Enough") continues his series of sarcastic and hilarious essays in the "You Never Miss the Dopamine (until the brain runs dry) series. This time, along with his weird dreams, liberal political opinions, descriptions of his declining health and rants about literary agents, Bill deals with a real family emergency -- his 80-year old mother breaks her leg, requiring Bill and his wife to travel to Milwaukee to help tend to her. He includes an open letter to Michael J. Fox, wondering why there is no nationwide push for Parkinson's disease awareness and writes about his impending PD dementia with a sense of humor that may, in fact, be part of the madness... Both hilarious and poignant, this book is a must have for anyone with PD, anyone who knows or loves someone with PD, and anyone who might get the diagnosis someday. In other words -- you ------------------------- And now, a personal plea from the author... 100 percent of author proceeds go to PD research. C'mon It's TEN BUCKS What else ya gonna do with TEN BUCKS? Go see a remake of a video game turned comic book turned movie? "Harry Potter and the Kidney Stone of Gloom?" Are any of these movies donating THEIR proceeds to PD research? Well? Are they? And you can read this book for the same price as a movie WITHOUT anything sticking to the soles of your shoes. I promise. I'm gonna keep writing these things until they get the high-pressure hose to wash me off the keyboard after I die, so you may as well start buying some so I'll stop BOTHERING you about them Bought one yet? Have you? Have you? Huh? Have you? Why not?
