   Welcome to Mark In The Park — a podcast about life, not just Parkinson’s. Hosted by Mark Milow, aka MarkInThePark21, this is a space where honesty meets optimism, and everyday moments matter just as much as the big ones. This week we have Parkinson’s Advocate, Blogger, speaker and all around good guy, Darryn Wright!  AKA “Punk Rock Parkinson’s”.  Darryn talks about what drove him to Advocacy, his favorite moments at the WPC, and speaks candidly about his struggles with Parkinson’s apathy and depression. Darryn’s Bio- Darryn Wright is a Parkinson’s advocate, content creator, and the voice behind Punk Rock Parkinson’s.

Through advocacy, speaking, and his Punk Rock Parkinson’s platform, Darryn uses humor, honesty, and a little punk-rock attitude to talk about the realities of Parkinson’s that often get overlooked.
