If you’re looking for something to make you feel good at this turning point in the calendar, it is right nearby at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, not far from your home. We ran the story a few days ago but now there is a wonderful video of the work of Dr. Michael Schwartz and his team. They have achieved stunning results for a Toronto man, engineer Tony Lightfoot, who has been afflicated with a disabling tremor caused by malfunctioning brain cells. Today, after the team’s “MR-guided focused ultrasound” Mr. Lightfoot is able to easily perform tasks that have been denied him for more than a decade. It is very moving. Please watch the video and Happy New Year.
