New Year's Resolutions

New Year's Resolutions

In the depths of the dark winter, we bring some light to our world when we celebrate the New Year. A traditional part of that celebration is the New Year’s resolution. Humans have been pledging to change their bad habits since the Babylonians vowed to pay off debts and return borrowed farm equipment some 4,000 years ago. (The custom of breaking those resolutions within several months is also an old one.) How can people living with Parkinson's disease make the most of New Year’s resolutions?

My Parkinson Story | Mike Debbeler

More than 12 years ago, Mark Schroder, then a board member of Tri-State Parkinsons & Wellness (TPW), a predecessor to Parkinsons Support & Wellness (PSW), asked me to join the board of directors of TPW. Mark knew that my late father had Parkinsons so he expected I would be interested in working with TPW. As TPW has evolved into PSW, I have had a wonderful and rewarding experience serving on these boards.
