Show Notes
There are so many ways to get involved with Parkinson’s disease, from community building to advocacy, research participation to fundraising. Taking that first step toward involvement can be daunting, but many people say it’s a critical part of living well with the disease. In this episode of The Michael J. Fox Foundation Parkinson’s Podcast, members of the Foundation’s Patient Council share stories of their own first steps, explore how engagement has impacted their journeys and offer advice and perspective to others who are looking for ways to make meaningful change. Tune in to hear guest hosts Jimmy Choi, diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2003, and Hadley Ferguson, diagnosed with multiple system atrophy (MSA-P), an atypical Parkinsonism in 2014, reflect on those stories, recorded live in the MJFF offices.
