Today we have a very special guest, Dr. George Ackerman, is many things…a doctor, an advocate, and champion for Parkinson’s Awareness, among other things, but most importantly, he is Sharon Riff Ackerman’s son. George and his family started TogetherForSharon® for the purpose of keeping his mother, Sharon Riff Ackerman’s memory alive and to share the message of Parkinson’s Awareness and hope for a cure. Today he'll share more about his work raising awareness and his journey with his mother as her caregiver.
