A day in the life of Tom Chomont, a man with Parkinson's disease. Fluctuations refer to times when medications suddenly work and then suddenly stop working, rendering the body frozen, unable to move. For Tom, fluctuations involve much more as his spirit rises and falls. He finds refuge dancing in the streets of New York.
This film has been entered into the 2010 Neuro Film Festival from the American Academy of Neurology Foundation at www.neurofilmfestival.com. Let's put our brains together and support brain research!
Tom- I am happy to find that you have found a medium to express yourself. For many it is so hard to live with these movements but surprisingly there is such a lack of awareness about them. Have you ever spoken with a neurologist about a deep brain stimulator?
