About TLRothwell

Not only do I have PD I also have MS. I have had Idiopathic Juvenile Parkinson's Disease since I was 15 years of age and I am now about to turn 47 years of age come September and to make it. As far as I know, I am the youngest Early Onset Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease Client in the world, a title I wish I didn't have. I hold a BA in English from the State University College of New York at Fredonia, I am a published author, I write children's books, am currently working a factual pictoral essay on WWI, one thing that doctors don't like about me is that I am a CLIENT not a PATIENT.

More About TLRothwell

I have had a few people tell me I am a controversial person, I find that to be understandable considering the fact I have and always will be outspoken with the truth. 

A couple years ago I was interviewed by the Chicago Tribune concerning Pfizer's assinine production and release of a medication named MIRAPEX.  Due to this medication I lost everything.  I also had horrendous legal representation who denied me jury by trial (which  was PROMISED), but they went ahead and WITHOUT my permission settled for an amount of $35,000.00 which they also told me I incurred no punitive damages whatsoever.  This 'law firm' was Cellino and Barnes it is in Buffalo, New York and I would avoid them at all costs, they are also in possession of a piece of evidence I instructed them to return upon completion of the said 'case'.

Needlless to say I am outspoken, truthful, I will not remain silent about the harmful drug by the manufacturers of MIRAPEX.

Other than the above 'dent in my armor', I'm just a writer who has a parrot named Feathers.

I have a major jump on the others who have posted here, I have lost more of my life to this illness and yes, it makes me feel cheated out of a lot of things and yes, I am angry when I take the time and think about the past years of hell I have been through.

Oh yes, did I happen to mention I am now dealing with MS AND PD.
