@mikeyhasparkies: My brother Matthew has been living with Parkinson’s since he was 15. This is the first time he is sharing his fear of uncertainty about living with Young-Onset Parkinson’s Disease. ❤️ But Parkinson’s isn’t just about the physical symptoms. It’s the fear of what the future will look like. The uncertainty of how long you’ll be able to work. The financial stress of trying to build a secure future while living with a progressive disease. And sometimes, the feeling of being trapped by circumstances beyond your control. Matthew doesn’t want sympathy. He wants the opportunity to work, build a life, become financially independent, and plan for his future without constantly living in fear of what Parkinson’s could take away from him. This is Matthew’s truth. And if you’re a young person living with Parkinson’s or another disability, we want you to know: You are not alone. Your story matters. Your voice matters. ❤️ #YoungOnsetParkinsons #ParkinsonsDisease #YOPD #DisabilityAwareness #InvisibleDisability. @lumingy

I’m so sorry young man. I was diagnosed at 69 years old. I’m 70 now.

There is a lot of fear and anxiety. I try to lean on my faith in God, but I sometimes fail.

The financial struggle of living with a disability is very real. How I am going to survive as this disease progresses is on my mind constantly.

Very familiar. I fear that I will be alone. I struggle financially which started a couple years ago when I found myself displaced.
