A book worth reading.

I’ve just discovered the book - “Rebirth at 50; In the end, it was not the end” by Florencia Cerritos. It is a raw and inspiring memoir of her journey with Parkinson’s. In the book she writes, “If, when reading these pages, someone can find relief, hope or a reflection from which to draw inspiration, then I will have achieved my goal”.

Hi Florencia!

Nice to meet you in person!

I research and write extensively about nutrition and medicine. Perhaps my report on the benefits of cinnamon for Parkinson's will be of interest:

Read the article. Very interesting! But I haven’t found until now the kind of cinnamon you mention in Uruguay...

Looking forward to reading yours about music as well. I don’t know why but the Kindle edition is not available to buy from uruguay. Btw, i have updated my site with articles and reviews in English. Also i will present my book in a book club for movement disorders on July 17th. . Anyone can join us!

I hope you find my book helpful. I’m sorry you can’t get the kindle version in Uruguay. The paperback probably works better anyway, then you can flick forward to the appendices when you want! It might be worth your writing a separate post about the book club event and to direct group members to your website.
