Currently 82F feeling like 102F. That's a tad warmer than we’re used to!

To answer the PD question…I am part of a Parkinson’s Care Partner study being run by The University of Western Ontario. Lu-Ann’s movement disorder specialist is affiliated with UWO through the hospital there. That was how they got my contact information. Dr. Jeff Holmes is spearheading the study and asked if I would be interested in participating. Yesterday was a follow up with responses from all of the other respondents. It has been, to this point, a blind study with people ranging in age from mid 20’s to early 80’s and all the ages in between. Yep, PD is not just an “Old Person’s Condition” any more. From some of the answers it was pretty easy to see who fit into what age groups and categories determined by the patient’s progression. Anyway, I look forward to the next step in the process where Jeff is hoping to get enough “thumbs up” from participants to take part in an on line round table. 

After my Sweetie’s appointment this morning we headed up to a little cafe in the town of LaSalle where we enjoyed a delightful sandwich and a couple of coffees. Too hot to do much outside, even by The River.

Enough from me. You all behave and please stay safe and cool.
