Indiana University School of Medicine Associate Professor and Researcher Doctor Richard Nass, founder of Firefighters' Neurodegenerative Disorders Research Foundation has also offered to speak at the Massachusetts State House Legislative Hearing in support of this bill. Dr Nass will be a great asset in terms of the scientific standpoint regarding the correlation between Fire Fighting and Parkinson's. Senator Don Humason Jr. offered to also co-sponsor the bill. I had the honor of working with his father Don Humason Sr. who is now retired from Westfield Fire Department.
