  • Thank God for you!

    A friend referred me to your podcast. I have learned so much ever since. You truly know how to explain what it’s like to have Parkinson’s. And I can relate to what you say each episode. I have passed on the information about your podcast to all my fellow Rocksteady Boxing teammates, to my contacts at Wisconsin Parkinsons association, and to both of my Parkinson’s support groups. Keep doing what you do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
