Letters from the Past

This episode centers around the correspondence between a Parkinson's disease patient and his doctors as they push for a treatment of the disease.

While in England this past summer we consulted Lord Brain just prior to his untimely death.  He was able to pinpoint my Parkinson's as being a result of Asian flu which I contracted in New Zealand eight years ago.

We went on to Romania to see Dr. Anna Aslan in Bucharest.  Her treatment is to slow down the progress of Parkinson's and has helped me considerably.  She injects 5 cc of her solution daily.  This has relieved the rigidity in my face and muscles as well as giving me strength to my muscles.
