On April 23rd, we had drinks and dinner with Michael J. Fox - - along with several hundred other Team Fox members. It was a very lovely evening. We got a chance to talk with Michael for a minute. I asked him about his twin daughters - who are 15 - and Steve asked him about playing with The Who. He was very gracious - had his picture taken with us and was off to talk to the next Team Fox member.
While in New York, we participated in a Parkinson's Unity Walk - which was really cool. There were approximately 16,000 people walking - and they raised 1.2 million for a Parkinson's cure that day. ALL of the money that comes in through pledges & contributions goes to Parkinson's disease. The sponsors cover the cost. Imagine, this all started 16 years ago with 200 people & a dream.
I'm hoping to have 200 people at our Walk to the Future on July 24th. I certainly have a dream - a future with no Parkinson's disease!!!
