Short film features Deep Brain Simulation treatment for Parkinson’s

A short film “I Just Wanna Dance” by film student Jim Harry documents the story of a woman who started getting Parkinson Disease symptoms at the age of 34. She has founded an NPF support group chapter and she wrote a book that helps explain to children what is happening to their parent with PD. Recently she came to UF for Deep Brain Stimulation surgery and the film shows a good bit of that process.
