So, let's try to make the best of it. My wife Aviva was diagnosed with Parkinson's Oct. 1985 at the age of 44. Deprenyl and Parilac have given her a good run and allowed her to hide her condition until 2 years ago. Aviva was an interior architect/designer and was very talented in many manual skills. She felt a serious deficit in coordination from the beginning but as already said, was able to fake it for others. For the last two years there has been significant deterioration although the doctor, Prof. Melamed, says that her problems have more to do with side effects of the L-Dopa than disease itself. Lately she's become very unstable and has begun falling and breaking bones which doesn't make life any easier. Incidentally, Aviva has been sitting by my side guiding the content of this message. Do you know the latest on foetal cell implantation and genetic engineering? We've had no update info. for over a year. Be well, David & Aviva Devor P.S. I own a list on Nysernet and moderate three on Majordomo. My subject is creativity, metaphysics and world transformation.
