Coming in JAN 2026! Children’s book on our children’s journey with their Grandma Sharon’s battle with PD….

After my mother Sharon passed due to Parkinson’s Disease a piece of my heart was forever broken. As I began advocating for others battling her memory, I noticed several important topics I felt there was a lack of awareness for. I accomplished those and my final difficulty was and still is explaining what happened to my mother to our children. I embarked on this Children’s book from my daughter’s journey to help children cope and understand that it is okay to discuss feelings and loss as well as symptoms they saw in their grandmother but to also never forget the memories we shared together.

We reached 350 PODCASTS!

Thank you for your time, care and support sharing them as we bring awareness worldwide!

1,000 Streams & Downloads for the “Q and A with Sharon’s Son, George” Podcast and I am just getting started!

A huge, tremendous, heartfelt THANK YOU to each of you! I keep on pushing, keep on advocating and keep being inspired because of YOU!

If we reach just one person each show who may feel alone, then we’ve changed the world for them — because no one should ever have to feel alone in this.

Thank you for listening, for sharing, for liking, and for supporting one another on this journey. We’re in this together — and because of you, we’ve reached 1,000 streams and downloads in just a few months, and we reached a milestone of 300 shows! https://togetherforsharon.com/qa-with-sharons-son-george-season-3/

Exciting news — we’re heading back to the Capital! With the Michael J. Fox Foundation
First, I want to thank the Michael J. Fox Foundation once again. Next, I want to thank my wife, Grether, who will be joining me this time. And third — but most importantly — I want to thank YOU for your time, support, and friendship in this fight for a Parkinson’s cure in memory of my mother, Sharon.

Each day and every moment, everyone I meet and everyone who likes, shares, or comments helps me ensure that my mother, Sharon, will never be forgotten.

Now let’s make our voices count in D.C. — for funding research, banning dangerous chemicals, and supporting this inspiring community.

TOGETHER, OUR VOICES ARE SO MUCH STRONGER! LET’S GO!

Parkinson’s Champions – 2026 Miami Marathon Weekend

#Run$PD I AM OFFICIALLY SIGNED UP!

Please support me through the Parkinson’s Foundation at https://secure.parkinson.org/site/TR/Champions-Marathons/General?pg=personal&px=2789704&fr_id=6896

I’m running to raise funds and awareness with the Parkinson’s Champions. I’m challenging myself to run the marathon to support the Parkinson’s Foundation.

The Parkinson’s Foundation makes life better for people living with Parkinson’s disease by improving care and advancing research toward a cure. Studies show that 2.5 hours of weekly exercise along with medication, can significantly improve quality of life for people living with Parkinson’s. We run and will continue to run for people with Parkinson’s because this disease not a sprint, it’s a marathon. Every dollar counts, thank you for your support!
