I need YOUR help...
Thank you for visiting my Fundraising Page for the APDA Optimism Walk! Please help me reach my goal by making an easy online gift today!
My Story
In 2018, challenges at work led me to a diagnosis I hadn't imagined: Young Onset Parkinson's Disease. Being only 42 years old, questions about my future and my family's weighed heavily on me.
While initial medications provided some relief, the intensifying symptoms now have me considering deep brain stimulation surgery, a procedure known to alleviate the symptoms of Parkinson's.
Over the past year, I've channeled my journey into raising awareness on platforms like TikTok and establishing an online forum, ParkyChat.com, to connect and support the Parkinson's community.
With the unwavering support of my family, especially my wife Nicole, I continue to navigate this journey. Please join me in making a difference for those affected by Parkinson's. Your support means more than you know.
