After being diagnosed with degenerative Parkinson’s disease, Norman Greenstein rediscovered his love of painting.  As his condition has progressively worsened, he’s fought through the pain in order to create artwork to help spread awareness and raise money to find a cure for Parkinson’s.

As part of his mission, Norman has given talks to other seniors with Parkinson’s in an effort to help them find the same relief that he has achieved by expressing himself through art. 

About Parkinson’s Disease 

Parkinson’s is an incurable degenerative disease that aggressively attacks the body’s nervous system. Parkinson’s disease usually starts with a mild shaking in the hands or feet and progressively gets worse over time, leading to increasingly severe symptoms up to and including immobilization, incognizance and death.

While there is no known cure for Parkinson’s, there are medications available that can slow down the onset of Parkinson’s, though not completely.

Cutting edge research is being done every-day in multiple fields of medicine to bring an end to the terrible suffering that this disease is responsible for.
