A WORD FROM THE FOUNDER

 

It has been about 14 years since I was diagnosed with young-onset Parkinson’s disease. At the time of diagnosis, I was a podiatrist and mother of two small children. Now I am a retired podiatrist and a mother of an 18 and 21 year old. Time flies!! PD usually stands for Parkinson’s Disease but I say it stands for perseverance and determination. This is my motto. I try on a daily basis to enjoy each day and live in the moment. This year has been my most challenging year yet.  I am hopeful that research will continue to find better treatments for this disease. In the meantime, I owe my life to my friends, family and the dance teachers who continue to keep me moving.
