Freezing & Fall Prevention

I have had too many falls of late.I have begun to be more proactive, spending ten minutes a day on a vibrarionalplate nd doing 100 squats and 100 knee lifts. And I HAve3 gone to several sessions with PHysical Therapists. They released me today, after I demonstrated a great improvemet in my balance. John and I both feel like it was very helpful.

Then, As I was reading a newsletter ‘Villoages PD Support Groups’ compiled by Rose Lang, wife of a husband with Parkinsons, I ran across a link that I Found very insightful. So I have posted it here. He talks about things the care give3r can do to assist. And quotes statistics like a person with Parkinsons is twice as likely to fall, than a healthy person. And he does a great job of explaining why. I encoutrage all of my followers to set aside time to listen to it.
