| Hellew!! Thank you for visiting our FUNDRAISING PAGE!! WOOHOO! On October 19th, we (Britt & Leigh) will be taking part in the Des Moines Half Marathon, along with a few other Nelson's & friends, to support the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) in their goal to "Ease the Burden and Find a Cure". Our cousin, LaDona, was diagnosed with an Essential Tremor at age 30, and two years later with Parkinsons. The medication she takes helps tremendously, which allows her to function close to normal most days. However, there are people with PD who are not so lucky and do not receive any benefit from the drug therapy that is available right now.
One of the biggest problems with PD medications is that there isn't one drug that treats all the symptoms effectively, so people with Parkinson's are constantly trying new “cocktails” to treat the most debilitating symptom with the least amount of side effects as possible.
With your help, we are able to support PD research, people living with PD, their caregivers & families, and raise awareness of Parkinson's disease.
Thank you so much for your support!! As our cousin LaDona always says, "Live, love, and laugh!" |
