In this episode, we discuss not letting Parkinson's win. There is a new, make a wish type program for Parkinson's patients founded by a passionate advocate for the community and owner of a PD gym. What do you want to do again that PD has taken from you?

Exercise is the only thing proven to slow the progression of Parkinson’s disease. Regular listeners of “The Parkinson’s Experience” will know we have featured PD gyms across the country devoted to helping People with Parkinson's (PwP) fight the good fight. This episode will be different so please take a  listen. It is very inspiring. Why? Well, the founder of DopaFit in Massachusetts who ,in addition to creating an amazing fitness center, has dedicated his life to Parkinson’s patients and has a passion for giving back to the community. Besides some of the normal activities like raising money and advocacy, he started an initiative to give PwP a chance to do something they once loved but thought they can’t do again. It’s called "Limitless". Warning: you might feel really good after listening to this episode – and inspired.
