How do you fight?

What do you mean fight!?!?! I never fight!

There are lots of things in life that we do fight. I fight against weeds, dust, and my inclination to think that I’m always right. The list of things that take my focused energy to defeat or even subdue is long! So, when you find a fun way to fight something, you should share it.

So, I’m sharing Grandpa’s newest way to fight Parkinson’s disease. He’s boxing! One of our local boxing gyms has exercise classes designed specifically for those who have Parkinson’s. The class is so popular that they have had to add an extra class time. Grandpa comes home sweaty and with a report of how hard they pushed him. He also comes home with a smile on his face because he has spent time with others that, though fighting the same disease, encourage each other.

If you haven’t already figured this out…Fighting is more successful in community. Identify what you need to fight, then find someone to help you fight. Wouldn’t it be great if we had learned this when we were younger?
