Parky skyped with Emily Dickinson tonight, then rewrote her “I’m Nobody” poem to kick start his travel plans for the upcoming World Parkinson Congress!
I’m Parky! Who are you?
Are you – a Parky – too?
Then that makes two of us!
And more! we’re seven million – you know!How eerie – to have – Parkinson’s
How muddled – like a Fog –
But let’s all head – to Portland soon –
And toast our Travelogue!
Remember, you can buy your own Parky, the official WPC mascot, here! All profits go to the WPC Travel Grants Program, which helps a junior researcher or person with Parkinson’s disease to attend the World Parkinson Congress 2016 in Portland, Oregon!
Dear Parky,
One of your siblings will soon be living with me in Orlando! He/she will send photos from The Sunshine State as soon as possible!
