On September 9^th, in memory of my father who suffered from Parkinson’s, I will be participating in the Walk to U-Turn Parkinson’s, to help raise awareness and funds to support Manitobans living with Parkinson’s.

Unfortunately, the condition has no permanent cure, but different medications and treatments including exercise such as aerobic exercise and yoga are advised by physicians to help reduce symptoms.

While I have supported Parkinson’s Canada since my father’s passing 18 years ago, I have always wanted to take a more active role.  When I learned about U-Turn Parkinson’s, I decided the time had come. 

U-turn Parkinson’s is a Parkinson’s Wellness Centre, dedicated to helping people with Parkinson’s live their best through a holistic approach to wellness.  U-turns Parkinson’s relies on the support of individuals, foundations, and corporations to fund carefully crafted programs and classes to empower individuals in their pursuit of wellness.

This is my request for your financial support in this incredibly personal and important cause.  While there continues to be research, funding is needed to support these types of programs.  Please join me in the effort to help those living with Parkinson’s. 

Thank you,

Monique
