Living with Parkinsons: An inside glimpse of the disease

This week is Parkinsons Awareness week.

This year marks the 200th anniversary since Dr James Parkinson first identified the condition that affects more than 12,000 people in Ireland.

Paddy Conaty is the Chairman of the Cavan Branch of the Parkinsons Association of Ireland.  Paddy and Eileen Burke Smith, - also of the Cavan branch - joined me in studio to talk about living with Parkinsons.
