My mom, the love of my love, Nazmije Mataj, was diagnosed with Parkinson 4 years ago. Disease rapidly progressed and within 2 years my mom was bed ridden and needed 24/7 assistance. She had the support and the unconditional love of her husband, 6 wonderful kids and her grandkids. Unfortunately we couldn’t save her life, we did everything that a kid can do for a mom. What was the worst is that, 4 of the 6 kids were not able to say the last goodbye, because of Covid 19 and travel bans that were in place. In memory of my mom, I will be committed to help Michael JFox foundation to help raise awareness and funds in research for Parkinson disease.
Rest In Peace , Mom.
