PINOY PARKINSON'S DISEASE THRU G-MEN (GOD, MEDICINE, EXERCISE AND NUTRITION)

PINOY PD THRU G-MEN (GOD, MEDICINE, EXERCISE AND NUTRITION) will be the First Annual Convention for lay persons with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and their caregivers which will be held on October 22, 2011. This date has been chosen for the convention because it coincides with the Feast Day of Blessed John Paul II who himself suffered from Parkinson’s disease but did not deter the late Pope from performing his anointing.





        We have gathered four resource speakers who will discuss the holistic approach in the management of Parkinson's Disease. One is a Neurologist and Movement Disorder Specialist who will tackle the updates in the diagnosis and medical management of PD.  Another is a Rehabilitation Medicine Specialist who will discuss the physical aspect in the therapy of PD. An author and expert will also give a lecture on vegetarianism and meditation. While the fourth speaker is a prolific and sought-after inspirational speaker.



        There will also be three simultaneous workshops which will showcase the Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Each of these workshops will be open to the participants with limited slots only.


        For the next nine weeks, you will come to know PINOY PD THRU G-MEN and what it stands for. This will be our vehicle to spread the good news that there is still hope for every PD regardless of race, sex or creed. Parkinson's disease may not have a cure but it should not put an end to the life of anyone afflicted with it because it will open doors so others may learn to share every thought, every word and every deed with LOVE in their hearts for PD.
