Hi, My husband was a first responder at 911 and was diagnosed with young onset Parkinsons three years ago.

I not only care about them I'm one of them and this could be very important for our future care. Ex : free homecare

My husband was diagnosed with PD 8 years after responding to WTC. Governor Hockel just passed a bill in NYS stating there is a correlation between PD and toxins inhaled from years on the job. It is my understanding that PD will be added to the WTC list. Yes this will help with medications Treatments and possible home care. If anyone has any updates please share.

My brother worked across the street from the WTC and some time after 911 he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. No one in my family has had it. He was perfectly healthy before 911. I believe that the toxic fumes he ingested after 911 caused him to get Parkinson's disease. He has been sick with Parkinson's since 911 and is now fading away in a nursing home. Every dime he worked for was depleted due to medical care. Does anyone know others who have developed Parkinson's under the same circumstances? If anyone can shed some light on this please email me @ (Email address can only be seen by the question and answer creators) Thank you.

I was a police officer who responded in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s about 10 years ago. If I could provide you with any info I’ll be glad to help. Dave
