So far this month, we have talked about the symptoms of PD. There were the articles on medications. Don't forget to pack them, and be sure to manage them properly. The pieces on skin changes, nutrition, and family and community support are all important elements of insuring those with PD are accommodated. In terms of family, the children of families are the ones who may not fully understand the disease but they understand something is different in their loved one.
Over the past two weeks we also wrote about how fun it is to be outside doing what you love. Plus, we added topics about hiking "To burn fat," then the journal entry on a day hike in 3 Sisters Park, outside Evergreen.
Yes, the month of April is PD awareness month. It is also the month when we ask our readers to join those who have already donated to the Parkinson's Association of the Rockies, through this blog. On April 12th, we introduced the "Hike the Canyon" fundraiser, and explained the quick and easy steps.
Some of you have responded. We look forward to more of our readers getting involved by donating to PAR. Then register for "Hike the Canyon." We are looking for people who enjoy the outdoors. People diagnosed with a neurological disorder, and people who have not been diagnosed. Hikes will be conducted in both categories. So make a donation to PAR, then make the call.
