I guess I am the new kid on the block so I will start off quite simply by saying that I am excited at the prospect of sharing my experiences and perhaps if possible helping and encouraging others. I have been living with Parkinson's disease since I was 38. I am now, nearly 52. So there have been some highs and lows since then, I like to think there have been more highs. I just completed my autobiography in which I reflect on my life so far with this illness. I am by nature a sensitive person and not partial to mud-slinging on forums, so you can rest assured that there will nothing like that from me. I am also a member of the PDS Forum in England. That's all for now.
