| Short Bio |
I live with my wife in a single-family home. I am a semi-retired attorney, and she is a retired social worker. In March, 2022, I turned 75 years old. I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in about 2013, and underwent genetic testing at that time, since my father had the disease as does my older (by 4 years) brother. I have 2 copies of the Parkinson’s-related LRRK2-G2019S protein and pathogenic GBA gene variant. My brother was tested in 2019 and has 2 copies of the same LRRK2 variant.
