As Parkinson’s Disease Awareness Month comes to a close, as one well too familiar with this illness, I am compelled to bring awareness to those who have left us in the struggle. I am so very grateful to have known them and to have shared their stories and their lives. Losing friends, whether it is from PD or not, is a pain that I dread. Yet, death is a fact of life that none of us likes to talk about or truly accept. I am so grateful for the friendship and acceptance that our PD community continues to share. I truly hope that all 12 months become months of Parkinson’s Disease Awareness–not just one!
Just AWARENESS would be wonderful. Including ALL.
