Welcome to the Parkinson’s Resource Organization’s (PRO’s) website, under construction. |
|
We look forward to your participation in building what will work best for you.
Parkinson’s Resource Organization was the first, and remains exclusively, psych-social organization in the Parkinson’s world. Our mission is to help families affected by Parkinson’s forge through the journey of the disease’s progression with as much quality as life can provide.
We believe doctors should ask if your long-term care insurance is in order BEFORE they make the diagnosis of Parkinson’s or any neurological chronic illness, simply because after the diagnosis, obtaining quality long-term care insurance is virtually impossible. If a person lives through all five stages of the disease they will need long-term care.
Understanding the costs and needs of long term care, among other issues, can be obtained through PRO’s monthly newsletter, Newsworthy Notes. Parkinson’s Resource Organization begins and ends each day, working so no one is isolated because of Parkinson’s.
Until a cure is found a person diagnosed with Parkinson’s can look forward to living through the five stages of the disease. These stages can take anywhere from four years to forty years. The differences depend on the person with the diagnosis. During this period, plans and strategies get made by the person with Parkinson’s, their family members and their medical professionals. Through information, referrals and outreach, PRO works with the families (even if the family is one and that one is the person with the disease), as they navigate through the journey.
Following is a list of wonderful people, companies, organizations and foundations
that made financial contributions to Parkinson’s Resource Organization during the 1st QUARTER of 2007. We want you to know that their support has made it possible for us to continue our good work in the Parkinson’s community. We express our heartfelt gratitude and say “God Bless You, You are wonderful!
