Imagine . . .. . get sick, become a model. Well, not really a model, just a face on a website. One of the drugs I take is celebrating their 10th year of helping people with PD. And yes, it is definitely a help. Without my PD drugs, I can barely move. When I take my drugs and am "on", I can dance. A substantial difference!!
People are coming from Boston to take my picture for a website which celebrates people with PD who are taking this drug. I'm a little nervous. Me, the subject of a photo shoot??? That's kind of weird!!
I'm not overly fond of the whole pharmaceutical business - but at the same time, I am totally appreciative of being able to live a fairly normal life. What if they hadn't invested the time, dollars, etc. to develop the drugs I take. On the other hand, is it possible they know of a way to cure the disease but don't do it because there is too much money in the current drugs? and there is huge money in the current drugs!!!
Am I selling out? I don't know. All these questions . . .. .
