MDJunction to me

Claire138"It's been a year since I joined the Parkinson's Disease Support Group on MDJunction and all I can say is thank you all for the support, compassion and friendship I've received and been able to give as well. It was a lonely night when I came upon this site, but the nights aren't that lonely anymore...
With gratitude to all...

I am not a doctor and my advice is purely my opion which should be regarded as such!

God grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change
The COURAGE to change the things I can & the WISDOM to know the difference.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.

I watched the video. Also went to the newwayra.com and it put me to another site that promotes Remicade. I guess I was a little confused. I was looking for recipes and things.

I did look a bit more. The comment area had nothing good to say.

FROM THE SITE A COMMENT

------------------------------------------------------------ --

You can register just say your in the states… they don’t care.

I think this program is a bait & switch. You have to give them your e-mail address and you can’t opt out of spam at registration. There is also no information about when the next show will be. Its not a series just one show with very superficial information in order for the drug compnay to get your e-mail address and sell you thier product

--------------------------------------------

is this true? any one know more?

Charlotte, Thanks for looking into this. I really had a superficial look and should have waited to say anything. That's what I love about our family, everyone looks out for each other.
