When my dad was first experiencing the tremors no one knew what was going on because he was always a healthy man and my mom the whole time kept saying she thought he had Parkinson's so before they moved he was tested and sure enough she was right. My dad had developed Parkinson's. It is very hard to see him sometimes because he was always such a funny guy always picking on me and my niece but now he shows barely any emotions and moves so much slower then he use too. I worry everyday for him. I love him so much and just want him cured and back to normal.

The Foundation is the world's largest nonprofit funder of Parkinson's research, with more than $800 million in high-impact research funded to date.
