Marathon #RSO making session finally complete. This isn't for me, rather a friend with #lewybodydementia as I do. In his case the #parkinsonsdisease side of things took center stage bringing a great deal of pain. This is the only thing that helps, even a little so even though this was a lot of work, I bought my friend at least 120 days of sanity due to less agony.

Film of the day: STILL (dir Davis Guggenheim, 2022) On paper, a documentary on Michael J. Fox's life with Parkinson's disease can seem a downer; on film, it's a lively, life-affirming tale of an up-and-down life that refuses to be narrowly defined by others' perceptions. #documentary #television #film #parkinsonsdisease #MichaelJFox

Together, Michael J. Fox and director Davis Guggenheim made the new documentary, "Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie," and Fox decided at the start that Guggenheim could show whatever he wanted.

I really hope this tech can be applied to many.

Michael J. Fox shared his news
That Parkinson's is giving him blues
The disease is rough
He's had spinal surgery and what's more
Broke several bones that he couldn't ignore

It must be slow fake-news day over at #Newsmax. Michael J. Fox has been a vocal advocate for #parkinsonsdisease research, and his own experience with the disease. Asking him questions about it isn't unnecessary or cruel. Pauly was respectful, and Fox welcomed her questions. This is Newsmax going to pathetic lengths to manufacture outrage over a completely benign interview.

"Studies in mice predict a 30-50% increase in #Parkinsons risk for those moderately to severely infected with the Alpha variant. While...this only changes a person's risk from 2% to 3% for developing Parkinson's, over the whole of the population we would expect to see millions more develop #ParkinsonsDisease than would have if not for their #COVID infection."

My mom had PD & it caused tremendous suffering. Not increasing my risk is reason enough for me to keep #masking.
