My name is Leigh Breton,I was diagnosed three years ago. I had never met anyone with Parkinson's and for the first year I felt very alone. Since coming and joining the NLPD family I have been able to talk to people who are facing this disease with such positivity. I joined the committee  earlier this year and hope to encourage more ladies with PD to join NLPD and benefit from the support we offer. I am still working but hope in the future to be more involved with activities the group offers
