Parkinson’s Support Group Meeting

Twenty hardy souls braved the frigid windy weather to come to the Parkinson’s Support group meeting on Monday afternoon in Battleford.

Guest Speaker, Eugene Lai, and Occupational Therapist from the Saskatchewan Health Authority spoke to the group.

He had some useful suggestions for overcoming the limitations imposed by Parkinson’s.

He is willing to make home visits and assist families in making their homes safer and more convenient and efficient for people struggling with their various disabilities.

Our next meeting will be on Monday, March 12 with a program yet to be announced.
