A Special Conversation in Honor of Father’s Day: Adult Children Reflect on Having a Father with Parkinson’s
Published 3 years, 11 months ago
Description
In honor of Father’s Day, The Michael J. Fox Foundation (MJFF) is sharing a special podcast episode between three adult children who discuss how they each have navigated having a father with Parkinson’s disease.
This Father’s Day and beyond, MJFF celebrates the experiences of patients, loved ones, researchers, advocates and supporters — speeding progress toward a cure. The Foundation’s landmark study, the Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), is enrolling parents, brothers and sisters, and children (over age 60) of people with Parkinson’s. PPMI is open to anyone over age 18 in the U.S. Join the study that could change everything at michaeljfox.org/podcast-ppmi.
