Hello,

I’m Sharon

Welcome to Twitchy Woman.

I started Twitchy Woman as a way to exchange ideas and solutions with other whose lives have been affected. It has been recognized by Everyday Health, Healthline, Stanford University and more as one of the top Parkinson’s blogs to follow. Each month I host a free Zoom webinar exclusively for other “Twitchy Women” with Parkinson’s Disease.

Feel free to explore the site – there are goodies on every page to help you live your best life with Parkinson’s Disease.

Let’s connect

Join the fun!

Stay updated with our blogs and ideas by joining our newsletter.

Your Support is Appreciated

All Twitchy Women programs are free to all who participate. However, they are not without cost. It takes resources to continue our work and we cannot do it without your help. Through our partnership with the Parkinson‘s Wellness Fund, those who want to provide support can do so. Thank you to all of you who have contributed. It is really appreciated.

A Son’s Journey

A new book by super Parkinson’s Advocate George Ackerman

Just out “A Son’s Journey from Parkinson’s DIsease Caregiver to Advocate. I am looking forward to reading this new book today.
