No Matter What.

This September, we're joining everyday heroes from communities across Canada as part of Parkinson Canada SuperWalk.

More than 25 Canadians are diagnosed with Parkinson's every day; more than one person every hour. By 2031, the number of people living with Parkinson’s in Canada will more than double. we are participating in SuperWalk to fund the increasing need for support, advocacy and research.

Jim has experienced some Parkinson's signs for years now. There are no obvious clinical symptoms of the disease, therefore a medical diagnoses is not possible. However, having participated in an experimental testing procedure for Parkinson's in the past year, Jim tested positive for it 15 out of 15 times. A program of regular exercise and diet are helping keep the progression of the disease at bay. Education and research are priorities for us in preventing, arresting, and living with the symptoms of this disease.
