“Parkinson’s isn’t slowing him down, he seems fine. He’s on medication.

“His husband is very helpful and comes to work with him and helps him dress so he’s got the support.”

“In the years that I have ahead of me, I want to do my best to show that it doesn’t have to ruin your quality of life, and that you can fight against the stereotypes others have of you.

“For that reason, when I’m out and about, I try even harder to look my best. I want people to know that I am not vanishing, I’m still fighting as hard as ever.”
