Parkinson's: An Unwanted Bitter Pill Are you sick and tired (literally) of waiting for a cure for Parkinson's? We are too. We're also frustrated at the New Zealand health system's inability to comprehend our situation of living with a incurable neuro-degenerative illness, for which we will be on the same pills for life.

We try to appreciate scientific progress, but can't pretend it’s enough. Play Episode
