  • A number of years ago while visiting in Ankara, Turkey, I was walking on an icy road leading up to a castle, when quite unexpectedly, my feet flew up in the air and I landed on my back, hitting my head severely on the cobblestone road. I could feel my brain literally hit the frontal part of my skull and wondered if I had suffered a brain injury. I was carefully monitored by our hosts and Turkish paramedics through the night, and fortunately survived. It was very frightening. Looking back, it seems to me I began having some neurological symptoms from that time on. I was diagnosed with PD almost 2 years ago.
