Available for over a year

For some, Parkinson's might mean the end of leading a normal life, of enjoying everyday activities, and a future of medication and patience. But that's certainly not the case for John and Christine Hemmingway in Mountsorrel, Leicestershire. John was diagnosed with Parkinson's almost 20 years ago. But, despite a Dementia in Parkinson's disease at the same time, he and his wife are on a mission to spread awareness and positivity. John and Christine spoke to Âé¶¹Éç Leicester's Ady Dayman for World Parkinson's Day (April 11th) to raise awareness and talk about the challenges faced by those living with it, their families, and caregivers.
