Toni, Try looking at the Rewired for Life website. It's an organization for people who have had DBS surgery or are thinking about it. Lots of good information, and there's a forum where you can ask questions. It's at: www.rewiredforlife.org Best wishes for your Dad's recovery, Linda ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
