My wife, Dianne, was diagnosed with Parkinson's in September 2013. This certainly came as a shock, but also a relief - a relief that we finally knew what has been causing her fatigue and motor control difficulties over the previous five years. Facing a future living with Parkinson's is challenging. This disease has a cruel way of taking things from those affected. However, we remain buoyed by the ongoing efforts that are made in characterizing and treating this disease and remain optimistic that it will be beaten!

This September, we are excited to join the Boxing 4 Health team. Together, we will join more than 10,000 Canadians who take part in the Parkinson SuperWalk. We raise funds for education and support services, not only for people with Parkinson's, but also for their caregivers and family members too in communities across Canada. This annual event also raises funds for research into the causes of Parkinson's, better treatments and one day, a cure. When you walk with me or sponsor me, you bring us closer to this year's goal. Every dollar means new hope.

Thank you!

Tim
