Sobre IBD

This story is an adventure experienced by Mike and his disabled wife, Sylvia. Sylvia, who has Parkinson’s disease, made the journey with the aid of a wheelchair across North America for four weeks in September and October 2016. They reacquainted themselves with old friends and made new ones. They experienced a succession of interesting and, in some cases, amusing encounters, along with one instance that verged on the miraculous.
