67 James Habersham, Beaufort, SC 29906
The team from Agape Hospice in Beaufort supported Harry and the family his last 18 months. Not only did they provide necessary medical supplies, but the staff would visit and chat with him, provide personal care, and emotional support. Paula, Katy and Shannon, and Harry's siblings were SO thankful for the entire hospice team during Harry's last days. We can't speak of Hospice without tearing up because of all they meant to us!

Despite being told Parkinson's is not a hereditary disease, Harry also lost his mother and brother to Parkinson's. We hope that one day, research will provide better medicines or earlier diagnosing for this disease.

How are donations used?
The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s research strategy — projects and activities we fund and prioritize for scientific attention and problem-solving — evolves rapidly in concert with advances made in Parkinson’s disease (PD) research. The past two decades have brought substantial growth in understanding PD, in particular the role of genetics and the disease mechanisms that are influenced by genetic changes. This has led to the development and testing of several experimental therapies that have the potential to slow or stop progression — patients’ greatest unmet need.
