After a decade of unexplainable ailments, Fred was belatedly diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease at age fifty. Realizing there was a limited amount of time to enjoy life, Sally quickly convinced Fred that they should flee the suffocating small New England town, where their successful business and active involvement in many facets of the community, were becoming an overwhelming burden. Florida seemed like a logical care-free destination, where their past trials could be put aside, and the present moment enjoyed. Several years passed as the reality of his illness grew more bleak. After a number of discouraging visits, his doctor offered Fred the opportunity to be one of the first few American participants in a very controversial and totally secret medical research adventure. An arduous, cutting-edge journey ensued. Being ’first’ is not always wise or wonderful. Being given the ability to maintain hope in a hopeless and ever worsening situation, was the elusive ’pot of gold’ at the end of a rainbow.
