A very close friend of ours Rhonda Peters has been working with the San Diego Parkinson's Foundation and brought to our attention The PD  foundation was having a 5k walk and thought it would be fun to build a Team Elliott!

Rhonda’s father Rudy battled with Parkinsons and it is a disease that hits close to home for her. Let's help fight the fight!

Elliotts story

About 5 years ago I received a diagnosis that I had Parkinsons. 

Slowly I began to feel changes.When I talked it was a whisper when I wrote it was so small no one could read my writing. When I tried to get my credit card out of my wallet it was a challenge. 

It is not just the uncontrollable shaking. With this disease the brain lies to the muscles. It and little gremlins, decide each day which, if any, or all, of the symptoms you will experience each day, How about a slouch with a blank look on your face? Toss in some vertigo and you believe you are on Everest. Every day is different.

I had just beat prostate cancer, was remodeling our house, and sold the business. I was planning on surfing into the sunset and traveling with my wife as we grew older. But I could no longer balance on my surfboards and couldn't catch waves. 

Physical Therapy and exercise along with a cocktail of meds is helping and I hope to get back on my board again!

PD- Parkinson's Disease. No cure, No dying from PD -But you can slow the progressive effects on your brain and body. 

Join us on August 21 and walk with us to find a cure!
