Persevering With Parkinson’s
Waiting means youre not necessarily living. Embrace what we can do for ourselves and in a small way, we find our own cure. Davis Finney, a former professional and Olympic road bicyclist, was diagnosed with Parkinsons at age 40.
For Joe Ralph, assistant director of Nursing at Heritage Village Rehab and Skilled Nursing in Gerry, life as he knew it, changed forever on Oct. 22, 2004. This is when he was officially diagnosed with Parkinsons at the young age of 38.

VIDEOS and PICTURES: How to beat bluetongue this summer FWi
The onset of spring and the imminent promise of vaccination have drawn bluetongue into focus again, Jonathan Long reviews the UK disease situation. Warmer days may be just the boon flagging grassland needs this spring, but they are also the one thing that will encourage the spread of bluetongue disease across the UK as midge activity and virus replication step up a gear. Bluetongue is the quiet killer, arriving unannounced on the wind with the midges and striking quickly to affect ruminants of all shapes and sizes.
