I noticed my first symptom—a twitching finger—when I was just 47. It took five years before I was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson’s disease. Determined to fight back, I joined Rock Steady Boxing last year, turning determination into action while maintaining a ridiculous amount of optimism.
Our Moving Day team, Shaken Not Stirred, started with just me, my husband, and our kids. It’s grown into a powerful community of 30 family members, friends, and fellow fighters, including seven of us living with Parkinson’s.
On June 7th, we’ll join forces at Moving Day Baltimore 2025 to raise awareness, fund research, and show others they’re not alone! We’re here to shake things up, inspire hope, and fight for a cure. Join us. Support us. Walk with us. No one should fight Parkinson’s alone!
