I have never been lucky when it comes to my health. I always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop in life. As a little girl, practicing my gymnastics beam routine on railroad ties in my backyard, I get Creosote splinters all through the bottom of my feet. Goofing around in South Park, Colorado when […]
I Hate Barbie, The Bitch Has Everything!
I hate Barbie! I could feel the rage building up inside me as I struggle to zip up a pair of sassy, yet sophisticated slacks. I am sucking my stomach in so hard, that angry tears run down my cheeks… not because I am crying… I am actually laughing. “Ha, Ha. Good one!” I have […]
The Trip of A Lifetime Through My Dad’s Eyes
Due to my commitment to the writing, producing, directing and starring in “Deep Brain Stimulation: The Sequel”, I thought you might like to read my Dad’s experience of our recent adventure to Europe. And who doesn’t like looking at pictures from someone else’s vacation?! Enjoy! Perhaps the entry to Heaven looks like this…inky blackness […]
Deep Brain Stimulation: The Sequel
Very few sequels are as successful as the original. Whether it is because they added new characters, a darker villain or the situation has changed, revisiting a story that has already been told, usually sucks the big one. But I have high hopes for my Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Part 2. My Story began on […]
Are Parkies the same in London?
After a long flight, of which I slept most of the way, my Dad and I arrived in London, Heathrow Airport around lunch time after taking the red-eye from California. We had been told by our tour guide, that it would be best to stay awake until that evening, to allow us to assimilate to the […]
Heading Across The Pond
A couple of years ago, my Dad told my Mom that he wanted to take a trip to Europe with his favorite daughter, who by the way, is unbelievably talented, caring, adorable and overall magnificent… or so I hear. The idea seemed so far-fetched that it was hard to imagine myself standing in front of […]
#PiesForParkinsons
The ALS Ice Bucket Water Challenge took over the world this year. Everyone from your next-door neighbor to Justin Timberlake has been joined the craze. Videos have been plastering social media sites of giggles and screams of the multitude of people dumping ice water on their heads. In fact, I was kind of getting irritated […]

It was made public today that Robin Williams, who had this week taken his own life, had just been diagnosed and was in the early stages of Parkinson’s disease.

We live in a time when advances in technology have improved our communication and allowed us connect with people everywhere. Now, you can FaceTime or Skype your best friend and have an intimate, real-time, face-to-face conversation about important things such as rainbows and unicorns, regardless of where you live in the world. As a kid, […]
A Grasshopper Walks Into A Bar…
Each year I put together an event called the Unity BBQ. This is a way for me to help take the politics out of the Parkinson’s community by offering a day that we can come together and support the cause. This being our 4th year, I teamed up with National Parkinson’s Foundation-Orange County Chapter to […]
