In the presence of Her Royal Highness Princess Michael of Kent
christie’s
The operation marked what I call my “renaissance” - and as many as one in four of those
afflicted by Parkinson’s can benefit from this surgery. Professor Marwan Hariz, Dr Patricia
Limousin and the team at Queen Square London are refining the technique and helping to
break new ground. Their work deserves your generous support.”
Michael Holman
Fergus Henderson
Before my DBS operation, I suffered from daily ‘freezing’ which made me feel like a
statue on a plinth - not able to show any facial emotion or move easily from one position
to another. After my DBS operation, I regained the ability to smile and express normal
emotions. My life has been transformed thanks to Professor Hariz, his team and The
Parkinson’s Appeal.
Stuart Carter
Professor Marwan Hariz and team, whose work is funded by The Parkinson’s Appeal for
Deep Brain Stimulation, are truly amazing. I am so grateful to be under their care
and have never met a team more talented, compassionate and totally dedicated to helping
improve the lives of people like me.
Amy Westall
Thank you for giving me back my life.
JB
It feels like the last 12 years was a nightmare
and that I have woken up.
MD
I’m well on the road to a better life and
it’s all down to you!
CE
It is difficult to put into words how
wonderful it feels to be still.
JW
You are blessed with a wonderful team
and I cannot thank you all enough.

When my brilliant charismatic husband Mo,
a movie mogul in the true sense of the word,
was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease 8
years ago, our lives changed dramatically.
There are 120,000 sufferers in Britain – among
the over sixty-five’s the rate is one person in
one hundred. Parkinson’s does not always kill
its victims but it kills their way of life.
I recently saw a plaque inscribed “The generosity of few is the hope of many”. This
could have been written of Simon Sainsbury
without whom we would not have been fortunate enough to have secured the services of
the world renowned neurosurgeon Professor
Marwan Hariz, who relocated from Sweden
to form a team at University College Hospital,
Queen Square, London, to perform a pioneering procedure called Deep Brain Stimulation
(DBS). This miraculous surgery has changed
the lives of many sufferers worldwide and his
research has lead to DBS being used for many
other movement disorders such as Dystonia,
Tourettes, severe Obsessive Compulsive disorder, some cases of Epilepsy that cannot be
treated with drugs and deafferentation (phantom pain).
Both Fergus and I have been overwhelmed
by the immensely generous response of all
the artists, photographers, designers, event
organiser Urban Caprice, everyone at St John,
especially Trevor Gulliver, Nicky Keane of JB
Pelham PR who has worked many long hours,
Christie’s and particularly Jussi Pylkkanen;
all have contributed to the Auction on October 16th and without whom this event would
never have happened.
We are much indebted to the artists’ dealers who without exception have waived their
fee to support the appeal. We are also extremely grateful to our advisory committee,
Sadie Coles, Kay Hartenstein-Saatchi, Stewart
Grimshaw, Jussi Pylkkanen, Johnathan Rutherfurd Best, Martin Westall, Jasmin Pelham,
Marion Naggar, Meredith Etherington-Smith
and Francesca Amfitheatrof, who despite
their busy schedules have worked tirelessly to
ensure the smooth running of the event.
Last, but very much not least, The Monument Trust, The Edmond J. Safra Foundation, The Peacock Trust, Culture Shock, Emily
James, Dan Lywood, Piers Thompson and Roy
Smiljanic for their generous and invaluable
contributions. There are so many of you here
tonight who have generously contributed over
the years, enabling Professor Hariz and his
team to continue this important research.
Thank you all.
In the words of one patient “This operation
has given me back my self esteem, human
dignity and quite frankly my life.”
Lyn Rothman
Dear Lyn
Your latest child, nick-named U-FuN (Unit of
Functional Neurosurgery) will celebrate its 5th
year in October 2007. You entrusted the custody
of the U-FuN to the Institute of Neurology and
the National Hospital of Neurology and Neurosurgery at Queen Square.
As Head of the U-FuN, I feel very sorry and
frustrated that I cannot be personally with,
and among, you at this wonderful art event.
But be assured that my thoughts are there, and
may I take this occasion of our Unit´s birthday
anniversary, to congratulate you on such an
endeavour: From nothing you created everything; thanks to you, more than 135 patients
so far have been able to undergo the deep brain
stimulation procedure aimed at alleviating
the symptoms of their Parkinson´s disease or
dystonia or essential tremor, all of which provoke disorders with uncontrollable movements
that impair the quality of these patients’ lives.
Several of the patients of the U-FuN have become so enthusiastic about the success of their
treatment that they have become fund-raisers
together with you.
Our Unit can still not “walk” independently;
it still needs your help and the help of those
around you, in order to continue expanding and
providing surgical treatment and pre-and postoperative care to more and more patients.
Dear Lyn, this continuing need for your support is actually a clear sign of success; because
that success has in turn generated the need for
more resources and more staff in the U-FuN,
the needs for funds are increasing, and cannot
be met but by your dedication and charity, as
an important complement to university and
state-delivered funds. This will ensure a continuation and expansion of the service and the
research at the Unit.
Dear Lyn, as mother of the U-FuN, and on
behalf of my colleagues, I wish to congratulate
you on all your achievements, and we hope
that you will be proud of your creation so far
and for the many years to come.
Warmest thoughts
Yours, faithfully
Marwan Hariz
“I was desperate. Then I was chosen to be
Professor Marwan Hariz’s 1st patient for Deep
Brain Stimulation at the National Hospital. I
can never say thank you loudly enough or often
enough to Professor Hariz for his unexampled
skill in giving back to me an ordinary life and
the desire to live that life, and to the Parkinson’s
Appeal for funding my surgery.”
