That's wonderful that Don plays guitar! Music can be a really meaningful and enjoyable activity for people living with Parkinson's. Many people find that continuing hobbies like playing an instrument brings joy and a sense of normalcy.

In fact, playing music may even have some benefits for those with Parkinson's, including:

- Rhythm and movement — keeping a beat can help with motor coordination
- Mental engagement — learning and playing music keeps the mind active
- Emotional well-being — music is a great mood booster

It's great to hear Don is keeping the music alive! 🎸
