In our December 2023 Living with Parkinson's Meetup--recorded on December 21, 2023--the panelists talked about the stresses of the holidays, recapped some highlights of 2023, and shared their hopes for 2024. As always, this panel doesn’t hold back, and we’re so fortunate to have them share their journeys with all of us.
