#Unshakeable

Be #Unshakeable for Parkinson Awareness Month.
Around the world, April is known as Parkinson Awareness Month.
We all want to live life to the fullest, but for people with PD it might take a little more to get there. A little more drive, a little more optimism, and a little more support – and that’s the essence of the Unshakeable Spirit.
For the entire month of April, the #Unshakeable campaign shines a light on the people and the stories of the PD community. We will feature the stories and faces that are meant to inspire, educate and help people know they are not alone in their Parkinson’s journey. All those impacted by PD, including people living with the disease, their care partners, medical professionals, and others are welcomed to participate.
#Unshakeable is a belief that as a community, we will rise up against Parkinson disease. We are inspired by the amazing individuals with PD and their families who participate in hundreds of clinical trails and health and wellness programs every day – both quietly and boldly.

#DYK Rosacea affects more than 3 million Canadians

Research shows the facial redness and other noticeable signs of rosacea can significantly impact the emotional and social well-being of sufferers.
Experts are not sure what causes rosacea. They know that something irritates the skin, but rosacea doesn’t seem to be an infection caused by bacteria. It tends to affect people who have fair skin or blush easily, and it seems to run in families.
While there is no cure, rosacea can be controlled and the effects minimized.
Get the facts. Gain control. Feel better.

March 22 is World Water Day

Water is one of the planet’s most precious resources.
Every day, people use water for drinking, agriculture, industry, recreation, hygiene, sanitation, and health care. Water resources are precious and finite. Warming temperatures and other natural and human-made stressors threaten to impact the quantity and quality of our water on a large scale. World Water Day highlights the essential role water plays in our lives and how we can better protect it.
