Pastor preaches through Parkinson's
ST. CHARLES – Wherever Dave Rushton might be at 6 and 10 a.m. and 2 and 6 p.m., one thing is certain – he’ll stop what he’s doing and drink a caffeinated beverage, probably Coke.
And, 30 minutes later, he’ll follow the drink with a snack.
Rushton doesn’t follow this strict schedule for dietary purposes. Rather, the St. Charles pastor said, it makes the medicine he takes for his Parkinson’s disease more effective, although he still experiences peaks and valleys throughout the day.
