Being a Parkinson Disease's patient is not easy, but it seems to be even harder if a patient who lives among Chinese-speaking community in Australia, due to lack of equivalent support and information. That is the reason why Julie Fry joined Parkinson NSW and help setting up a Chinese Parkinson disease's patients group. In an interview with Ivan and Selina, Julie is going to tell us her journey of being a voluntary worker in Parkinson NSW and the Chairperson of the supporting group, and her struggle of being a Parkinson disease's patients herself.
