Parkinson’s Awareness Day - April 11th 2015

How are you going to mark Parkinson’s Awareness Day this year? Are we doing all we can as a community? There is no room for complacency. Now is the time to stand up and be counted for if we don’t, who will speak on our behalf? You may be wondering what you can do, and how you can possibly make a difference. Every person can contribute something, and by pulling resources and joining together, with the common goal of finding a cure, this is surely our best way forward.

Speaking from the heart and personal experience, Lisa Vanderburg, who doesn’t sugar coat anything, like myself continues to campaign, and came up with a powerful slogan:

"WORK TOGETHER – CURE TOGETHER!"

The 11^th April is a special day worldwide,

To help spread awareness all efforts applied.

For its “Parkinson’s Awareness Day” didn’t you know?

The community band together and jointly we show.

Help us mark this day to highlight our plight,

Let’s make some noise, and in unity we’ll fight.

We are going to “party” and spread the word,

To dispel misinformation that many have heard.
