Today will be 2 years exactly since I started writing a daily blog
on 6th September 2011. To mark this second year, as I did last year, the entire
entries of my blog will be made into a book, which you will be able to download FREE from
Smashwords.com. As soon as it is up on-line and available, I will let you know.
My intention all along has been to offer support to those who find themselves
in the same position as myself and to educate, bringing greater awareness to Gaucher,
a rare disease most have not heard of, and Parkinson's, a common disease that
hits millions around the world. I have tried to inject some humour as having
Gaucher and Parkinson's is far from a picnic, and hope you have enjoyed and
learnt something along the way. I would like to thank each of you for joining
me on this journey, but don’t worry for it is far from over, and tomorrow is a
new day. I will continue to write and be an advocate for both diseases for as
long as I am able. One day I will no doubt have to hang up the two hats I hypothetically
wear, but not just yet. I still have much to do, so join me, and
together we'll make it through another day. One day at a time, step by step -
this is the voyage in life I've been assigned. I didn't choose this path, it
rather chose me.
May this coming year be a better one for us all, healthier, happy and who knows, maybe a cure for Parkinson's is closer than we think.

It is once again Friday and the weekend is upon us. My latest article on
The Huffington Post is about "Who takes care of the caregiver?"
