From The Parkinson’s Association of Netherlands press note:
Parkinson’s patients lose control over their bodies, forever. There’s no acting in this film. The main character, a Parkinson’s patient (and the chairman of the Foundation), is shown shaking out of control as a result of lack of his medication. Shaking. Fun for some… Daily struggle for others.
The chairman’s name is Eric Roos.

briano12 3 months agoMy mom has Parkinson’s. As best as the research can tell so far, it can be hereditary, and there are two genetic markers for a high likelihood that someone will develop the condition. I have them both. In two months my mom will be undergoing a series of three brain surgeries as part of the Deep Brain Stimulation treatment, one of only two non-pharmaceutical treatments for Parkinson’s. She is doing this because the medications she takes, upwards of twenty pills a day, have been increased so many times that oftentimes she is so nauseous that she can’t eat. Some nights she shakes so badly that she can’t sleep. And because Parkinson’s is a degenerative illness, she’ll never get better. There’s no “remission”. In the next few years it is very likely that she will develop other neurological impairments, like dementia. I don’t give a damn how much awareness this nonsense raises. Parkinson’s isn’t funny, and it does not deserve to be linked to some goofy-ass meme in any way.
