I know that the internet can be treacherous, but hearing of the new friends and data that Allie Signorelli has acquired through online groups is such a positive thing. I love her attitude as she is not afraid to smile or laugh while taking about this condition. Information is power, so I thank Katie Couric and Allie Signorelli for sharing.

Thank you so much for doing this! I've spent the last ten years trying to figure out what was going on. Ten years of the wrong diagnosis. I waited for almost a year to go to a woman neurologist at Washington University. I have to drive two hours to see a doctor that took me seriously. Finally, I found out I have had Parkinson's for years. The male neurologists that I had seen in Columbia MO. dismissed me over and over. I became almost suicidal when one of them said it looked like I was coming off drugs. I've never done drugs but he wouldn't listen. So, my symptoms started at age 50. I got diagnosed at age 60. It's been 10 years of trying to be heard, of thinking I was crazy, and most of all wanting to die. I've been calling the local Parkinson's group number but to date, I have not gotten a call back. I'm single which makes it a challenge at times. Your story gives me a little hope.ā¤

Thank you Allie for sharing your experience with Parkinsonās with Katie interviewing and discussing the importance of advocating this disease of and educating others! I knew a very dear man and watched him wither away and he died. I now have a friend, in his mid 60ās who was really struggling with his symptoms-itās affecting his speech now. He was involved in a form of martial arts, his whole life. He was a master and taught many others the appropriate skills. I donāt live near him now and he has progressed so far. I hope you continue to have good days. Blessings and peace to you Allie.
