text: i think they should make pope john paul ii the patron saint for those with parkinson's disease. do you?   i think it'd certainly be appropriate, if a touch specific.  perhaps the patron of those with muscular disease.  this would include parkinsons but would also include mononucleosis, muscular dystrophy, etc.  rather more inclusive while still being appropriate.  perhaps neurological disease as well, since parkinson's is primarily neurologic in nature.
