  3. 1. Excellent and meaningful (to me) sermon from Rev. Aija today

    2. Such interesting people and the stories of their spiritual path at the Path to Membership meeting today.

    3. While making the decision to move Alyssa back to MA was hard, and then my decision to move back to CA, it was the right thing. Her sister is excellent at managing her care at this stage of the disease.

  9. Norsk biobank for stamceller er på vei:

    «… I laboratoriet er hudcellene nå i ferd med å programmeres om til å bli såkalte iPS-celler. Altså stamceller som kan gi opphav til alle typer spesialiserte celler i kroppen, for eksempel muskel-, blod- og nerveceller. …

    Neste mål er å kunne reparere skadede organer og ødelagt vev hos de med #ParkinsonsSykdom, alvorlige #hudsykdommer, #hjerteinfarkt og #diabetes. …»

  12. A retrospective analysis of causes of death among approximately 20,000 U.S. National Football League players found that, although they had lower rates of all-cause mortality than the general population, their death rates from neurodegenerative diseases (dementia or Parkinson's) were almost four times higher.

  16. Week 3: Peaceful

    Issie June 21–27, 2026 This week brought something new to my summer schedule as I began my first volunteer session with By The Hand Club for Kids. The experienced volunteers who showed me around were all very welcoming, making me feel a lot less anxious about having to work with new people. For the first day, I was able to help with their summer program for elementary school kids. After settling in, since it was the first day of the summer program, we spent a lot of time having outdoor […]

  21. RE: mastodon.social/@theperpetuall

    Time bends differently in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, where movement and memory drift on their own currents 🌊🧠 These shifts in lived time can feel quiet yet immense. If this reflection resonates, the first post in this thread may offer more #Parkinsons #Alzheimers #Neuroscience #TPC8

    "For example, the ratio of inhalation to exhalation in people with Parkinson’s disease, or the interactions between breathing and swallowing, are altered very early on, long before symptoms become severe enough to be noticed. Similarly, the eye movements of patients with Alzheimer’s disease, particularly saccades, could be captured using an in-ear microphone and provide valuable information about the progression of the disease."

  27. Paraquat, which is linked to inception of Parkinson's disease, and is banned in more than 70 countries, is not regulated as an air pollutant--so a production plant in Wanesboro, Mississippi releases tens of thousands of pounds into the air each year, without constraint or consequence.

  31. A chemical linked to Parkinson's is still legal. That must change.
