As we approach the holiday season, the spirit of giving takes centre
stage. Whether through time, resources, or support, we're reminded of
the power of giving back to the Parkinson's community. In this issue,
let's celebrate the incredible contributions we're all making in
support of the Parkinson's community as we work towards a world where
everyone with Parkinson's can thrive.

Current therapies for advanced Parkinson's include deep brain
stimulation (DBS), the Duodopa gel infusion pump, VYALEV subcutaneous
infusion therapy and new studies on a technique called focused
ultrasound (FUS). Join us on Dec. 11 from 2 to 3:15 p.m. ET as we
discuss these four therapies and hear from individuals who have
accessed them. You'll hear about the benefits and drawbacks, and
how it affects their daily lives. This webinar could be helpful if
you're considering a new therapy and want to hear from someone with
direct experience.
