Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease

Hi  Robert: First let me say that I just finished reading your book on Parkinson’s: On The Road To Recovery from Parkinsons Disease AND IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!

We have corresponded before. I live in Victoria BC. My name is Linda Ralph. I have had symptoms of PD for 12+ years now. I wanted to send you my review of Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease. 

I loved the way you presented it in a clear, concise, easy – to- read fashion, so that even I could understand it from cover to cover.(Ha.) At last a hands- on reference book for Parkis that is useful. Yeah!

Because of the chosen format, the wealth and variety of information, the adaptable index and contents, readers like myself, can access pertinent information readily, or, if not, be shown alternative ways to gain such information. Good stuff.

I really enjoyed the inclusion of the anecdotes of others who had/have this condition. Reading their stories, as well as listening to the guests that are featured on your radio show, have provided me with some new ideas and strategies that I would like to try. And hearing the success stories of those who are completely free of the symptoms of Parkinson’s – well – that’s my kind of reading. Yes!

The Q. and A. section was personal and informative and reminded me, and probably other readers as well, of some of the same questions that we too have pondered at some time or another along our way. Such questions are real.

Most importantly I think that your book provides Parkis and their family members with some HOPE in a society where doctors are still professing, even today, much gloom and doom to the newly diagnosed. And, HOPE where there is depression, anger, resentment, pain and lack of understanding about this condition.

I have already lent my book to a newly diagnosed friend of mine. I just wish that I had been given a copy way back in 1998 when I was first diagnosed. Perhaps my bout of depression, brought on by: fear, hopelessness, misinformation, and by the way my doctors treated me at that time could have been avoided. (Who knows?)

What you ARE NOT  providing for those of us with this condition is a cure. And some may say,”Darn.”(or maybe something a wee bit stronger.) But what I am saying that you ARE providing, is something to hold onto. Something tangible that Parkis can use to fight their symptoms right now and in the future, a reference book that those of us with the symptoms of Parkinson’s and our families can pick up, look inside and maybe  find an idea or two that may just work. And dare I say maybe glean just enough information, and try just hard enough, to recover completely from this condition.

Thank you so much for this book. And thanks to your staff, who worked alongside you to help you reach your goal. And thanks to you for all the work that you have done and continue to do  for those of us with this condition.

You are appreciated!

Linda Ralph

Can-C Eye Drops

Are you having issues with your eyes? Perhaps dry eyes. Perhaps double vision. Perhaps jittery eyes. This post is about antioxidant Can-C eye drops.

My uncle Gordon Ward developed advanced cataracts 15 years ago. A former college president and Wyoming State Legislator, Gordon loved to play tennis, read books and write about history. Cataracts made it so difficult to read that Gordon reluctantly decided to have cataract surgery, one eye at a time. There was no other good options at the time.

Cataract surgery on his first eye healed beautifully. Surgery on the second eye was a miserable flop. Gordon developed double vision and was essentially blinded. He could not read. He could no longer play tennis. It was all a horrible shock.

My Aunt Betty said that the stress of cataract surgery caused Gordon to begin experiencing the symptoms of Parkinson’s. He was diagnosed shortly after his failed surgery. Had Gordon been able to see, I believe he would still would have been able to continue playing tennis and enjoying life to the fullest.

As part of my work to identify natural remedies, I am excited to report that I have located the source of a natural anti-oxidant eye drop that addresses eye problems caused by inflammation.

The discovery of this remedy originated with the work of a Russian medical researcher Dr. Mark Babizhayev, Ph.D. who made the simple but profound observation that people who had no cataract problems had sufficient levels of N-Acetyl-Carnosine in their eyes. This substance happens to be a natural antioxidant. People with cataracts had insufficient levels of N-Acetyl-Carnosine in their eyes.

Dr. Babizhayev took his research to the second level by developing eye drops that contained N-Acetyl-Carnosine. He then began doing research to see if the new antioxidant eye therapy worked.

Studies confirmed his hypothesis. Add N-Acetyl-Carnosine to the eyes and the eyes heal themselves. Cataracts are reversed. Most eye problems are caused by inflammation. The eye drops thus help reverse many eye problems. Isn’t that totally cool?

In addition, the eyes are physically located next to the part of the brain that is responsible for manufacturing dopamine. I am wondering if healing eye problems might have an indirect, but positive impact on Parkinson’s symptoms in general. The jury is still out on that one, but you never know.
