Jack Andrews Member of the Parkinson Association of SWFL since 2014
"I have met people who relocated to the Naples area just to participate in programs offered by the Parkinson Association of SWFL."
 Member Jack Andrews
Q: How did you become involved with the Parkinson Association of SWFL?
Jack: I was first diagnosed with PD in February 2014. Two weeks later I read something about the Parkinson Association of SWFL in the Naples Daily News and made an appointment for my wife and me to meet in their office.
 
The volunteer on duty spent a lot of time with us, explaining the various effects PD has on people, sharing brochures on PD, and also about the many activities the organization makes available.

Q: What activities did you get involved in and do you believe attending has affected your PD progression?
