Bernard and Denise Coley's Journey
"From the moment of PD diagnosis, my first step was to get informed and find ways to get connected.
I began an important daily habit of doing PD research. I visited all the PD websites, signed up for emails,
read blogs and newsletters to learn any new information.
Bernard and I became Parkinson’s Advocates in Research (PAIR) and joined The World Parkinson’s
Coalition, PD Avengers, and the Parkinson’s Foundation People with Parkinson’s Advisory Council
(PPAC). Through these organizations, we share perspectives on Parkinson’s disease research and
advocate hope."
