My Story

Available in paperback & eBook - "MY JOURNEY"
You don't realize what you have until it's gone. This sentiment has never meant more to me as it did when I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
It comes on slowly. While you are walking you trip occasionally, you notice that small gestures are slower than they used to be and you're talking to people but you are not making facial expressions when you think you are. These things happened to me. I went to a neurologist and he explained to me what was going on. I had to accept that I had Parkinson's disease.
With Parkinson's disease you manage the symptoms. It is two steps forward and one step back every day. There is no cure! Drive Away Parkinson's Inc. has been established to raise money to help find a cure.

Operation Beachhead
It is a hard thing for me to admit that I am disabled. Especially since my DBS surgery. I feel so good. But the truth of the matter is I am.
It is a good thing my friend Richie new it. Richie and a few other friends are volunteers with a wonderful organization called Operation Beachhead.
Operation Beachhead is a non-profit organization based at the Jersey Shore providing adventurous, yet safe, all-season sports for veterans, active duty troops, and individuals with disabilities.
A number of years ago Richie invited me to their ice hockey event in Old Bridge. This summer I have been going to their beach event. This is where they get me in the water surfing with a guide. I am not a beach or water person but this makes me feel ALIVE! I love it. All the volunteers are so nice. It is a great morning out. Check out their Facebook page, Operation Beachhead.
