This is part one of three of a mini-series of episodes we are calling &ldquo;Down Under.&rdquo; Host Larry Gifford gets you ready for World Parkinson&rsquo;s Day. Learn about the new international symbol for Parkinson&rsquo;s disease named &ldquo;THE SPARK&rdquo; and how you can use it. &nbsp;Where to watch the world premiere of the new documentary &ldquo;The Long Road to Hope: Ending Parkinson&rsquo;s Disease.&rdquo; The Parkinson Unity Walk in Central Park in New York City is going to take place April 23. IF you can&rsquo;t make it, you can still participate, we&rsquo;ll tell you how. &nbsp;
The featured guest is Founder of PD Warrior and the Insight into Parkinson&rsquo;s virtual conference Melissa McConaghy, FACP. Melissa takes us behind the curtains of PD Warrior and gets us ready for Insight into Parkinson&rsquo;s Conference.
We discuss stigma, self care, and neuro plasticity.
Thank you for listening.
