Steady Strides 2021, Presented by Supernus Pharmaceuticals, was a Great Success!

When the Steady Strides 2021, presented by Supernus race committee met in January of this year to plan for this year’s event, we worried that we would be facing real challenges in trying to hold an in-person race in the second year of a pandemic. We pushed the date of the race back to October once again, in hopes of a safer gathering. As Spring turned to Summer and Summer to Fall, we saw that many race and walk events were either being cancelled again or resulted in around a 50% participation rate.

My Parkinson Story | Dave Ebner

Five years ago, when I was diagnosed with PD, I wrote an article for the PSW newsletter. The tile was “My New Reality”. I expected the diagnosis, as our son had been dealing with Parkinson’s for about 15 years, and as a volunteer with the Parkinson Support & Wellness Organization, I had many opportunities to learn about PD. I knew too much about the symptoms I was experiencing. At least I did not have to deal with denial.
