ABOUT me
My journey with Parkinson's started in December 2014. I was 45, a wife and mother - I couldn't have Parkinson's, but I did...we did. It was not MY diagnosis - it was OURS, and the DePorter Family began its journey with Young Onset Parkinson's.
Life changed, and we changed with it, especially me. I became a Parkinson's advocate for education and exercise. My passion is empowering others to live their best lives.

Something to think about
For Parkinson's Awareness month, ask yourself, am I living or surviving?
There is a difference. You can get through the day or find something good in it.
Be comfortable with the uncertainties - find the adventure.
That’s living.

No, I don’t feel well, thank you for asking.
