I'm taking part in the Growling Beaver to raise money for Parkinson Canada. Parkinson's is the fastest growing neurological disorder in the world. There is no cure.
In 2019, at the age of 50 - I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. To say that the news was a shock is an understatement. Although I have had my fair share of low moments since being diagnosed - I continue to live my life to the fullest and have tried to remain as upbeat and positive as possible. I wish every day that I didn't have PD - but it's no longer my enemy and I'm at peace with it. Cycling continues to be a therapeutic outlet for me and being on my bike makes me feel almost "normal"!!! I am looking forward to riding 100 km with friends and family to raise funds for an important cause.
I would love your support. Your donation ensures that a full, vibrant life is still possible for over 100,000 Canadians - like me- living with Parkinson's.
