| Introduction | I was diagnosed with Parkinson's aged 44. Since then, my life has changed in many ways...some for the better; at least for now. I have traveled to America, Canada, Poland, Israel, Jordan, Thailand, Hong Kong, Venice, Rome, England, Scotland, Amsterdam, and ridden a pushbike around Vietnam to raise funds abd awareness for Parkinson's. I have walked in the New York Unity Walk, and attended numerous Conferences. I am an ambassador with Parkinson's Victoria, and head a group of 'young' Parkies called "YAP-Young@Park. It is a support group of People living with Parkinson's and their partners. We meet informally at restaurants, often with a guest speaker. As I near my date for DBS, August the 5th, I am keeping this blog for myself, my family and friends, and for others who may be contemplating DBS in the future. I shall be continuing this blog until August 28th, the date of Parkinson's Victoria's Unity Walk, which I am using as a focal point for recovery. |
