Thanks to Jim Finn's timely information, I was able to see the PBS health program this afternoon, part of which was a segment on Jim's experience with pig cell transplants to the brain, and how he's doing. The program quotes Jim as saying he's improving steadily. Keep it up, Jim! My husband came in from shoveling -- asked to be told when that segment came on. This is the first time he's voluntarily watched something about PD, so I was especially grateful to Jim for sharing his experience on the program itself and for telling the List it was coming.
