Dianne Ross is an amazing woman who truly grabs life by the horns. She is passionate about hiking and cross-fit and loves keeping fit and healthy. In February 2019 (in her early 40’s) she was formally diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, a disease that generally effects older people.  

Dianne started noticing things weren’t quite right some time before her diagnosis and looking back she believes there were signs of her condition some 5 years prior to the diagnoses being confirmed.

A fit and health woman in her 40’s, she began feeling lack of strength on her right side, especially during weight training. When her finger developed a tremor she suspected something was definitely wrong.

Instead of slowing down and asking why me? Dianne did quite the opposite: she continued with her health lifestyle, the same month she was diagnosed she hiked the Overland track in Tasmania and later that year went onto hike Mount Toubkal in the Atlas Mountains in Morocco and 3 Capes, Tasmania.

She is an absolute legend of a woman, who radiates love and happiness.
