Anytime PMD Alliance comes to town, I am happy to jump in and help. I have been an ambassador for them for over 7 years now. Recently, Parkinson's Orange County (POC) partnered with PMD Alliance for a Community Connection event hosted at Capriana Senior Living in Brea. The event included a networking reception on Friday evening, followed by a full day workshop on Saturday. Not wanting to travel back and forth from South OC, my husband, Jeff, and I stayed the night in a local hotel. The weekend started out great at Friday's reception. I was back at my hotel and in bed early so I could be back at Capriana in the morning with plenty of time to unload my car and get our vendor table set up. Since I was staying in Brea, I had assured Erin Angelo, POC's Executive Director, that I could get there before her, so I had all our supplies in my car. As many of you know, Parkinson's often throws a wrench into the best laid plans, I woke up on Saturda...
We had a very rainy, cool winter in SoCal this year. So much so, that I was getting a little tired of the rain and gloom. But I knew this would happen...summer strikes, we get temps in the 80's and 90's and I melt. Temperature extremes are a real bugger to deal with when you have Parkinson's. I hydrate, use cooling towels, even wear a personal fan at times and yet...I sweat. If you need to find me before October, I will be hanging out in the A/C somewhere. #parkinsons #dailyridewithpd#parkinsonsdisease
