I have just returned from Montreal where John and I attended the World Parkinson's Congress. Wow! Over 3300 folks from more than 70 countries joined together -- neuros and basic science researchers, dancers and physical therapists, PWPs and yoga teachers, care partners and clinical trial organizers -- for three very long days of sharing information and sharing hope. It will take me a while to absorb all the information, but it doesn't take as long to absorb the hope. I was encouraged by the desire of the researchers to discover more treatments and even a cure. I was encouraged by enthusiasm of the neurologists to fight with their patients and to work together to make lives better. I was encouraged by the zeal of the other therapists -- exercise professionals, physical therapists, etc. -- who work daily helping PWPs feel better right now and even slow their progression. And I was encouraged by the care partners without whom all the PWPs could not be there. But mostly I was encouraged by other PWPs, many of whom are worse off than I am. It makes me feel both good about my exercise and what it does for me -- and grateful that I am doing so well. And their example offers a good model of how to go ahead and live life. One woman who was diagnosed at age 27 said that you have to give up your fear of the future to start living in the present. Yea, what she said!
