Like many people who are diagnosed with Parkinson's, she struggled with accepting her new reality.
It took five years before doctors were able to officially diagnose her with the disease at the age of 31.
In the early stages of her diagnosis, she hid it from her family, friends, and coworkers. It wasn't until she was approached by Parkinson Canada to be part of their No Matter What campaign, that she officially "came out" to her entire community.
Guest: Caitlin Nagy.
