“Thank you” to all the the participants that joined the Men and PD webinar. We so appreciated your support, enthusiasm, thoughtful questions, and feedback. We hope you’ll all take a moment to review the recap below and join us for future webinars.

Also, a huge “THANK YOU” to our panelists - John Bennett, Brian Corbett, Ken Cater, Michael Fitts, and Dr. Michael Vaughn. The shared candor with which you all described your personal experiences as Men with PD was inspiring and illuminating - a courageous demonstration of the the power of camaraderie and support in coping with PD. Dr. Vaughn summed it up perfectly at the conclusion of the Webinar: “There is strength in brotherhood. Don’t try to isolate yourself, because it ain’t gonna work.”

Michael Fitts and I have been in Washington for the past past few days attending the Parkinson's Policy Forum. We were planning to go to the Hill today to meet with our senators and representatives to ask for their support for increased funding for Parkinson's research, but we are snowed in and the Hill is officially closed today. We are calling and emailing them instead and will follow up when we get home. We are asking that you take a few minutes today to call or email your representative and senators to ask them to support funding for (1) the National Neurological Conditions Surveillance System at the CCDC; (2) research at the National Institute of Health; and, (3) the Department of Defense for research on Parkinson's in veterans. #act4PD #Parkinsons

We appreciate our new partnership with the Parkinson Association of Alabama! You guys are doing amazing work across this State! Just wanted to introduce the Alabama Family Trust. We are a non-profit created in 1994 under AL Statute to administer special needs trusts for individuals of all ages with disabilities. We are able to protect assets, help pay for long-term care, help avoid a "spend-down" of personal assets, help enable Medicaid eligibility, and utilize trust assets to improve overall quality of life.
