My car has been repaired, so my wife drives me to Autowerke in Norwich this morning to collect it. The mechanic who takes my money (and who has discussed my Parkinson’s and DBS with me before) greets me with “Good morning, Mr Frizell. I’ve been watching some of your videos!”, which was nice to know. It’s all very well knowing that people are viewing my videos, but it’s a real buzz getting direct feedback from someone in real-life!
I dash home to Southrepps so that I can get stuck into this week’s vlog. My voice is still weak and slurred (but not as bad as it was last Friday) so I change the settings on my neurostimulator to group “B” from group “A”, although I’m not convinced that it makes a great deal of difference. As soon as I finish filming myself, I change it back over to group “A” settings.
I manage to finish my vlog, upload it to my YouTube channel, publish it and post links to it on Facebook and several online PD forums before my wife arrives home from work.
