Elaine's Trek to Machu Picchu page

Trek to Machu Picchu · 4 September 2015
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
My Father, who was always very fit and healthy, was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in his early 60's and was forced to retire early from his job as an engineer. The disease has robbed both he and my mother (who is now his main carer) of the active and enjoyable retirement that they had hoped for. The illness is progressively degenerative and the treatment is harsh! That is why I would like to make some contribution towards research, in the hope that the lives of future sufferers, can be easier than that being experienced by my lovely Mum & Dad. I know that the trek to Machu Picchu will be the most challenging thing that I have ever done, so please lend me your support and sponsor me.
