Michael J. Fox talks about his experience with Parkinson's disease. He founded the Michael J. Fox Foundation in 2000 and it has become one of America's leading sources of funding for Parkinson's research. The Michael J. Fox Foundation also supports research being done in Maine at the Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor. The work being done at the Jackson Labs may lead to new treatments for Parkinson's sufferers and might one day lead to a cure. This segment is excerpted from the MPBN documentary "Easing the Burden: Parkinson's Disease."

Hi Swam420. This is the final segment in a documentary called "Easing the Burden: Parkinson's disease". The chalk at the end relates to an earlier segment in the film. You can watch the complete film on the web site.

My husband is crippled with Parkinson's Disease. He is a Vietnam Era Veteran, Honorable. We have experenced US Veterans Hospital abuse. Who do we turn to, to get the message to the public? My husband laid 5 hrs in his own FECES & URINE at a US VA hosp. 6-15-2011 How can our country allow this to happen? This issue is ignored by US Govnt officials, pres obama and VA Admin. Do they NOT understand & care about PD patients? Thanks, K Carter, Wife/caregiver of Mr. Lynn E Carter, Fort Smith AR

Those who have it, my condolensces. Stop breathing so quickly, 4x a minute breathrate is enough for everyone's body, which will take you one minute to prove. This is the source of Parkinsons. Breathing slower test trials are impossible, hence no solution.

"Buteyko" - Google him and expand his thoughts to Parkinsons disease, CFS, RBBB, etc. etc. If you have the disease, do your own research please, it only takes a minute, what have you got to lose? Wear a dust mask while sleeping too.

@zukaka84 yeah...they did not confirm it yet but they say there is an extremley negligible chance...but....lets be optimistic here:)..

[zukaka84]

@hotdog7223 That hypothesis was not correct as I know. It was about neutrino traveling faster than speed.

[hotdog7223]

@zukaka84 do you know that know the scientists world wide.....they found a particle which travels at speeds greater than light.......i mean its just an hypothesis....if its true....they say time travel may be possible..........when that happens i'll make sure you hear bout...:).....(this is all true)....

[hotdog7223]

@zukaka84 trust when time travel is possible.....we'll do it

[Beadsy123]

Michael J Fox is truly a hero..
