Hello everyone,
I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who plans on attending the Hope Conference in Seattle, Washington on Saturday, November 7, 2009.
It is put on by the NWPF.
I plan on going and my husband is going with me.
I had heard it is a wonderful conference. Being new to having PD, I think this will be of great benefit for me and my husband.

" I plan to also attend. I hear it's good. I'm newly dianosed (Dec 08). I find that most of the feedback about PD is pessimistic and negative that I’m looking any positive information. Most sites on PD only discuss how to deal with the negative. I find it hard to find information on slowing the progression or reversing PD. Or just being optimistic. For this reason I’m also attending another conference on alternative therapies and positive thinking at the end of the month in Olympia, WA. "
