There has been much work in Australia trying to get politicians to agree to a national plan for Parkinson’s disease.
On Australian radio this morning, there was an interview with a retired federal politician with Parkinson’s disease, John “Wacka” Williams and a neurologist.
Wacka was diagnosed in 2016 and I made him a bucket light hat not long after he went public about his diagnosis. Wacka has also met with the expert behind the research into Parkinson’s disease, Prof John Mitrofanis, and he is a beneficiary of Prof Mitrofanis’s superb work.
Wacka continues to use his light device every day and as he says during this interview that his disease progression is very slow and that he lives a full and busy life, and he is still on the farm.
Here’s a link to the interview. It lasts 12 minutes.
The Duo Coronet is based on Prof Mitrofanis’s research and I’ve had consistent reports from Coronet wearers that improvements are made in movement and non-movement symptoms and many tell me that their disease progression has slowed down.
And don’t forget that you can make your own light device, the same type as I made for Wacka eight years ago. Check out the DIY menu for further information.
