If my words stir feelings of frustration or ignite a rebellious spirit within you, than every moment spent crafting this book has been worthwhile. parkinson’s disease is unforgiving — and I will be equally unyielding in discussing it. This serves as my rallying cry against Parkinson’s.

I use “Parkinson” throughout this text as shorthand for Parkinson’s disease itself rather than as an homage to James Parkinson, the physician who frist documented it. If that seems overly simplistic — I apologize in advance.Though, trust me when I say that this detail pales in comparison to the larger narrative at hand.

The contemporary reader seeks genuine stories — not clinical definitions or sanitized medical jargon filled with platitudes about suffering. Herein lies something far more valuable: raw truth. It can be harsh and even profane at times as it reflects the reality of living with this condition. To reclaim your life from Parkinson’s requires unwavering determination; I’m here to guide you on how it’s done and encourage you to join me in this fight.

After years of grappling with my condition, I stand as proof that change is achievable through sheer willpower and effort.
