At 43, while I was a full-time anesthesiologist, I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.  I knew no one else my age in similar circumstances.  While I have a great neurologist and very supportive colleagues and coworkers, I often felt alone.

As I neared retirement I felt strongly that doing something meaningful would be key to my happiness and satisfaction. Furthermore, meaningful came to be defined as helping those newly diagnosed and suffering with the unknown future of Parkinson’s as well as spending time with the socially isolated.  For me, this journey is just beginning but my experience thus far has been much more positive than anticipated, deeply philosophical and ever humbling.
