Help Carla Fight Parkinson's - GoFundMeEvery donation enables me to add another piece to this complex PD puzzle. I hope to reach my GoFundMe goal as I continue to explore all avenues I can to control my symptoms, and get to the root of this mysterious condition. At recent performances, it has been wonderful to see so many of you. And no, I have not added “Shaking The Blues Away” to my repertoire -- not yet. :) I am grateful that Parkinson’s has not yet stolen my voice ( and it may never ) as I plan on performing with the Royal Society Jazz Orchestra into the future, and participating in the RSJO's wondrous music. Some of you have inquired about my eye-opening journey as I educate myself about Parkinson’s. I’m continuing to scratch the surface of what is available - research, theories, therapies, diets, herbs, physical exercise, and much more. It is overwhelming. But I do have hope as I attempt to leave no stone unturned in my quest. Am I Grateful? “Absolutely, Positively, and How!” to quote a well-known 1920s song title. I hope you will consider contributing to my GoFundMe Campaign. Please share this message with anyone who may like to contribute to my campaign!
