Yetta Nother …

Yet another authority encourages people with Parkinson’s disease to exercise as a way to slow PD’s progression.

Johns Hopkins’ website has a short article titled “Living with Parkinson’s:  5 Ways to Stay Healthier.”

While the English teacher in me cocks an eyebrow at the word healthier (healthier than what?), there’s this choice quote:

Johns Hopkins Parkinson’s disease expert Zoltan Mari, M.D. says, “It is possible [exercise] can reduce the risk of Parkinson’s disease and it is even more possible it can slow down the progression of the disease. [This] is the subject of intense speculation and research.”

The article lists five “stays”:

1. Stay active.
2. Stay connected.
3. Stay focused.
4. Stay positive.
5. Stay tuned.

So read it, and have a nice stay (= a nice day)!
