Kathleen had a great massage today and is resting for the Singers Around the Bay Concert scheduled for this evening (7pm at Sacred Heart Church) to benefit the Global Ischemia Foundation.

Kathleen took a neurogenic vegetable extract today that seemed to have much the same effect as a medicine known as sinemet. While sinemet (given to help relieve the muscle stiffness, tremor, and weakness caused by Parkinson disease) is an essential drug for many Parkinson patients, over time it robs the brain of its ability to create its own dopamine reserves which causes a decrease in its efficacy a need for an increase in dosage and the development of complications. Should more natural and neurogenic forces be useful, it could potential benefit as many as 4 million worldwide sufferers of Parkinsons. While it is way too early to declare Kathleen's extracts a cure, so far, they seem to have demonstrated a release of some of her tone.
