鈥淛ust being able to move around freely is a gift. When you have Parkinson鈥檚, doing simple things like brushing your teeth with one hand or taking a drink of water can become very difficult to do," Mark said.

Mark Mason was diagnosed with early onset Parkinson鈥檚 disease at just 49 years old. He had been searching for a treatment solution ever since. Eventually, he met BOB体育 neurosurgeon Dr. Kelly Foote and BOB体育 neurologist Dr. Michael Okun. Together with a world-renowned team of movement disorders experts, they were able to help Mark get back to life, walking the trails near his home and spending quality time with his wife, Kathy.
