Meet Bobby. A lifelong musician, performer, and hard worker, Bobby’s world changed dramatically after his Parkinson’s diagnosis. He didn’t just lose mobility — he lost his voice, his band, his marriage, and his confidence. But despite it all, Bobby shows up — for himself, and for others. Through support groups, a deep love of music, and sheer willpower, he’s learning to live forward, one beat at a time.
Bobby has always been a performer — someone full of energy, voice, and purpose. But Parkinson’s didn’t just take a physical toll; it took away his band, his job, and even some relationships.
“It was like watching myself disappear,” he shares. He remembers being afraid to answer the phone.
But Bobby doesn’t let that define him. With the help of a close partner and a strong support group, he’s choosing to move forward. Music still gives him joy. And so does community.
His story is one of recovery, not just from symptoms — but from isolation.
“I just keep looking forward. And I make the best of the situation.”
Watch Bobby’s Story below.
