David, you are being sent to one of the best MDS in the area. George is seeing dr Ballard today (Wed) This is a follow up visit. He has not seen DR Ballard for over a year. Felt due to some increasing problems it is time. We really like him. Find him very easy to talk to. He is very willing to answer questions. We were told by a nuero here in South Sound that DR Ballard is the gate keeper for the movement clinic at Swedish. He is also very through. Lots of luck. When do you see him.? David you are not wacko. Is someone going to your appt with you? It really is good to have someone with you at these appts. Often having 2 sets of ears and 2 minds to ask questions helps a lot. Good luck. Hope you get as much from your visit with him as we did. Hugs , Juanita CG for George 74/71/64
