There is hope and expectation at this time of the year for those of us living with Parkinson’s disease. We have come through the dark nights of winter and look forward to brighter days and warm sunshine. For the month of April, we have a special focus on people living with Parkinson’s.
It never ceases to alarm me that so little is known about Parkinson’s in Ireland, yet we have (sadly) many well-known people around the country living with Parkinson’s. It is quite shocking that we actually don’t know the extent of the condition nationally.
