John,
I have a very amateur video tape of me doing my exercises. It
is truely primative but you could get the idea of what has helped me
for years. The tape was made back when I had had Parkinson's for 14
years, but the exercises haven't changed even after having Parkinson's
surgery. I would be willing to share it with you if you would return
it and with the understanding that it was made for my home use.

I am a graduate student, and my class project involves
creating exercise prescription programs for Parkinson's disease
patients. I have read many books
about this subject, but I have not been able to find what I am looking
for. I
would like to find some "real life" exercise protocols, so that the
information I present to my classmates is the most accurate and usable.
I do
not feel that it would be beneficial for my classmates to recieve poor
information, and then in turn, not provide the quality care that
Parkinson's
disease patients deserve. Since I do not work with Parkinson's disease
patients on a regular basis, I feel the need to search for help from
professionals with more experience and knowledge than myself on this
topic.
Thank you for any help provided!
