While living with Parkinson’s may make you feel like you’re constantly navigating unchartered waters, the truth is that even if nobody shares your exact experience, there are fabulous resources out there to help you live well. In addition, people with Parkinson’s are some of the most welcoming and generous people you’ll ever meet, and many will go out of their way to support, encourage and befriend you along the way.
Today, two of our Davis Phinney Foundation Ambassadors share the resources that have been the most helpful to them on their journey to living well with Parkinson’s.
In this video, Rich Wildau shares some of his local favorites as well as general ideas for how to make the most out of the resources in your area.
