i found the segment disappointing

[Cbgs in reply to healthabc]

Why?

[nelo23 in reply to healthabc]

I agree. I would have liked to know more about the treatments, meds, etc. that he has tried or that his foundation is testing, trialing, etc.

I thought he looked great! One of the most inspirational and influential men of our time.

I'll be quite happy if I'm doing as well as MJF in 25 years time!

au contraire

The first thing we learned is that John Pepper does have Parkinson's, MJ Fox does boxing and your brain can not process all the info it takes in. Communication is tiring because we have to shut down the brain that helps with calming. I found it more informative than most of his interviews.

can not wait to see it again

New revelations upon watching it a second time: I am going to be pigeon toed as I loose control, he to ( like me ) has a little fat in the middle. ( with as much as he moves he should be a pole, must be cortisal fat. ) ANXIETY....

When he can not focus on staying calm his synapses start firing causing movement / for me pain. I also saw others who looked normal but as soon as the spotlight was on them lost control.

Now to watch it again.

I have been wondering if I should start a time line bio on myself and what I believe to be the start of my PD.

If I did not have PD I am not sure I would understand from his interview what it was exactly. It was presented by the show in a way like everyone knows what Parkinson's is. . I understood what he was saying about controlling his dyskinesia by focusing his mind and not talking, but I think it would make me confused about the disease if I did not have it.

When I saw the panel of ordinary PD people, I got excited that they were showing all sorts of PD people, but they did not say too much.

I would of liked to hear a little on any progress on finding a cure and details on what are obstacles. Maybe the fact there was no update speaks volume.

Perhaps the interview fit in with the style of the show..kind of breezy. Perhaps I was expecting too much? After all MJF is just one person who has done a great deal to raise PD awareness.

Nobody can understand us, that's the problem.

and it is not just the right who do not understand
