Why Parkinson’s Care Is Personal to Us 💙
Parkinson’s disease holds a special place in our hearts at Always Best Care – Tempe.
In December 2020, our co-owner Tom suffered an ischemic stroke in his left basal ganglia, induced by COVID-19. Since then, he has faced lingering challenges — tremors in his left arm, shuffling of his feet, incontinence, apathy, cognitive changes, and depression.
After seeing a movement specialist and completing a DaTscan, Tom was diagnosed with Vascular Parkinsonism. Thankfully, with the help of carbidopa-levodopa, consistent exercise, and other treatments, he continues to live a high-functioning and fulfilling life.
Our first-hand experience navigating these challenges has deepened our empathy and understanding for those living with Parkinson’s and other neurological conditions. It’s one of the driving forces behind starting our agency and becoming a Parkinson’s Foundation Community Partner in Parkinson’s Care.
Walk with us or support through a donation on November 8th at Kiwanis Park. Together, we can raise awareness, inspire hope, and make a difference for everyone affected by Parkinson’s disease.
