This week on Mountain Lake Journal...


     This week on Mountain Lake Journal, an uplifting trio of segments as Paul Larson fills in for Thom Hallock.  Larson hosts the show from the sculpture garden at SUNY Plattsburgh, and his Adirondack Journeys segment this week invites us to tour the Museum Without Walls.


     Also, we'll follow the progress of a little Albany girl named Hannah Sames, as she battles Giant Axonal Neuropathy.  Her parents' ongoing efforts to organize fundraisers with various communities and navigate through the medical world are offering hope to Hannah and other people afflicted with this rare and fatal condition.  Hannah's own improvement with moving and speaking will be apparent to our viewers who have seen our previous stories about her.
     The program also takes a look at a unique way war veterans can find empowerment, by sharing their trials and triumphs with a some artists who turn their stories into serious comic books.



     Mountain Lake Journal premieres Friday, May 19 at 8pm on Mountain Lake PBS.  It repeats Saturday at 1am and 7pm, Sunday at 5:30am and 10pm, and Thursday, May 25 at 1pm.
