RIP Ozzy Osbourne (1948 – 2025). As a global rock icon, Ozzy inspired millions with his music, but even more profoundly, he moved the Parkinson’s community by bravely sharing his diagnosis and becoming a pioneer in the conversation around advanced therapies, including stem cell treatments. His transparency gave hope to countless individuals and families navigating this challenging journey. I am grateful for his courage, candor and commitment to progress in Parkinson’s research. We honored his story and explained the type of Parkinson's he had (PARKIN gene) in the publication The Conversation which can be read at: https://t.co/x94W2kYL7W. Thank you Ozzy, you made a huge difference in the lives of many people. @FixelInstitute@ParkinsonDotOrg@OzzyOsbourne

@ApeTrooper_USA @krassenstein Yes I do know the meaning . And I just love it when people start getting perso al, I imagine you were one of the ones who thought drinking bleach for covid was a good idea!
@jonny_acheson With me it's part of my ASD diagnosis. I learnt to look at people so either just behind the person or at the ears/nose. I can't stand looking straight at someones eyes.
A significant number of people with Parkinson's, potentially 1 in 3, feel the need to hide their symptoms or diagnosis, often due to stigma and fear of social repercussions.
