Ironical indeed. Probably caught it from one of his patients.

He thinks he may have got it from handling the Rotenone he was treating the test mice with.

Farook, you never read other people posts, if you did you would know this story was covered before.

Thank you for pointing that out, but this is the first time I have seen it.

Unfortunately we all have so many other things to deal with in this life it is very easy to miss 1 or 2 posts, or even 10 or 20, depending on the timing 🙂.

I’m sure we all appreciate the research that certain people do to help us all, even if it doubles up 🙏

Maybe yes, maybe no. I was hoping you wouldn’t take offense at what I wrote, as none was intended.

And we all have crappy days, whatever our diseases. And the fact when something is written down, it could be in all innocence but could be misinterpreted!

Please don’t be hard on yourself, we’re all friends on here.

Cheers 🌸
