Hi All -
Earlier today I was interviewed by a crew from the Australian Broadcast Corporation. They were here to discuss Parkinson's Disease and my 1996 "pig-cell" implant surgery to relieve some of its symptoms.
It was amazing that they even managed to get to Newport, RI from Boston - there was a nasty snowstorm today.
Everything seemed to go quite well. After the formal interview was over they taped as I worked in the kitchen, tinkered with an old radio, and walked on my street.
The yet-to-be-named program, scheduled to air "sometime" in June, will also talk about stem-cell research and other related subjects.
Just thought you'd like to know.
Jim Finn
