JWelcome to WendySparkinson.com!
After my Parkinson's diagnosis in 2017, I started my personal journey to support and inspire others. This led to the creation of the magazine Enjoy Life, an online magazine in which I share personal stories of people with the same diagnosis, offer scientific insights, and provide a platform to positively inspire and support each other. The experience stories provide positivity, connection and tips. The stories are nice to read for both newly diagnosed and people who have been diagnosed for a longer period of time. The magazine is also popular with the people around us, our caregivers, researchers, our healthcare providers and it provides more awareness and knowledge about Parkinson's disease and what this disease does to you. By reading the magazine you get to know each other who live with this disease and how they deal with specific symptoms. People tell how they can stay positive, what makes them happy and what advice they can give you. Stories that can inspire you to do things differently, but also the feeling of strengthening each other to be there for each other. A magazine where we can stand up for each other and connect with each other. Share the stories with each other, feel connected and gain more understanding.”
In addition to my work as editor-in-chief, I organize the annual "Woman & Parkinson Event," a meeting specifically aimed at empowering and connecting women living with Parkinson's.
My goal is to make a difference in the Parkinson's community through creativity, empathy and information.
