Parkinson's Enigma (The)

When Michael J. Fox left the sitcom Spin City to campaign for a cure for Parkinson’s Disease, he met a team of researchers (including Dr. Oliver Sacks of Awakenings) who believe Parkinson’s is more like an injury than a disease – an injury caused by environmental toxins or viral attacks. If they’re right, stem-cell therapy could stop or even reverse the damage. From mysterious causes to the promise of a cure, The Parkinson’s Enigma tells a story of hope.
