Salinas, CA Parkinson’s Caregivers Have Hope : Google Has Come Up With A Novel Device To Help With Essential Tremors

by Richard Kuehn on 12/08/14

Google has been working on a number of fascinating projects in the booming health care sector.  The latest : reinvention of the spoon.  Called spoogles, these spoons use hundreds of algorithms to enable people that have Parkinson’s disease and other conditions which cause essential tremors to eat easily with a spoon.  In clinical trials, the Liftware spoons reduced shaking of the spoon bowl by an average of 76%.  “We want to help people in their daily lives today and hopeful increase understanding of the disease in the long run,” Google spokesperson Katelin Jabbari told the Monterey Herald.  Google co-founder Sergey Brin’s mother has Parkinson’s disease and we thank him for turning this bad situation into something positive via this invention and the more than $50 million he has given to charities looking for a Parkinson’s cure.

I was diagnosed 2 years ago at age 63. Symptoms were tremor in right leg, loss of handwriting ability,My normally beautiful cursive writing was now small cramped printing and soft voice. I also had difficulty rising from a seated position and have balance issues. I started out taking only Azilect, then Mirapex, and then Sinemet. Several months ago I started falling frequently, hence the reason for Sinemet. During the summer of 2021, I was introduced to Health Herbs Clinic and their effective Parkinson’s herbal protocol. This protocol relieved symptoms significantly, even better than the medications I was given. Visit www . healthherbsclinic . com , After First month on treatment, my tremors mysterious stopped, had improvement walking. After I completed the treatment, all symptoms were gone. I live a more productive life. I was fortunate to have the loving support of my husband and family. I make it a point to appreciate every day!
