sounds like events we have had here in New York City sponsored by my neurologist and a foundation . He's all for alternative approaches and EXERCISE and FUN is key! so have fun

Thanks Pat. I read a lot about what's going on in the US and hope we can have the same here in the UK. You're fortunate that you have an enlightened neuro. Hopefully we can have some fun with this as you suggested. It's wonderful to have your support.

I would love to come but I'm a single parent and can't drag my kids all that way. Is there any way I can communicate with the practitioners who will be there? This is exactly what I need.

Hi Trixiedee,

I have a handout with everyone's details on it that was produced for the event. Let me have an email address and I will send it to you.
