I am not a person with PD but a persona who works with people with PD (PPD) and relatives, and the gratitude I have to PPD and their relatives is infinite, I have no words to say thanks to them. Without them my life would’t have sense.

We’ve conducted a Parkinson’s Workshop since 2002, so this year is our 20th anniversary!

Pandemia times have been really challenging to us but we continue with online meetings and whatsapp group and we’ve survived! Hope we soon  return to in person meetings to dance and play to improve our mobility and quality of life!

Thanks Parkinson’s Today Forum for the opportunity to express my gratitude!

Here in La Plata, near Buenos Aires, Argentina, the political-sanitary measures continue to be really restrictive so we can’t develop our “normal” activities.

We used to conduct a group of Parkinson people and now we are struggling to do something by internet. It’s difficult because not every people have good connectivity. What is worst, no everyone have the opportunity to have a smartphone!

We are adapting mutually and following everyone at least by phone calls. Its sad, but I keep hope in the possibility of improve with experience and time.
