A Parkinson’s patient says his debilitating tremor vanished within minutes thanks to a newly approved, non-invasive ultrasound treatment. For years, 72-year-old Air Force veteran Bud Leavell struggled with severe tremors that kept him from living life to its fullest. Then doctors at UT Southwestern used focused ultrasound waves to target precise areas deep in his brain... without opening his skull. At his latest follow-up, the tremor remained under control. His response when asked how he was doing? “What tremor?”

If you don't feel good for this man, you are not human, or you're just a miserable person. We need more positive stories like this in our daily lives.

His disease has progressed too far to receive this kind of treatment. Apparently, you have to be fairly "early" in the 5 stages of Parkinson.
