This week Simon and Andrew talk with Aaron Burnette about his experience living with Parkinson's Disease as April is Parkinson's Awareness Month. Parkinson's is a progressive, degenerative condition of the central nervous system that has no known causes or cure. The disease is complex, with more than 50 symptoms, and can often be misunderstood. 

Aaron tells his story from being diagnosed in 2012 offering insight into the physical challenges, emotional adjustments and resilience required to keep moving forward. One of the ways Aaron stays both mentally and physically fit is by attending Fazio's PD Fighters; a boxing rehabilitation program for individuals with Parkinson's.

'Developed by former Australian Boxing Champion Rai Fazio and Neurologist Professor David Blacker, then backed by science from the Perron Institute and a published research paper in the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, this program blends powerful boxing techniques with targeted movement therapy tailored to the unique challenges of PD.' You can read, watch or listen to more about this program on their website here.

We hope you enjoyed this insightful discussion and personal perspective on an often misunderstood disease.
