shatter myths of pd.avi

A sedentary job only increases Parkinson's disease symptoms like rigidity and stiffness. Some employers work with their employees to make adjustments to their jobs but sometimes despite everyones' best efforts the employee must leave the workforce. Far too many people in the prime years of their lives must do this.

Our people are our greatest resource. It behooves us to find a cure for Parkinson's disease for this reason alone. As PD increases among old AND young, our already faltering economy is feeling the strain of ever rising SSDI payments.

You may notice I speak fast although I am very understandable in this video. The two reasons for that follow: PD can make people speak fast or slow. Also, I had time constraints for this video made for a PD organization.
