The Wilmington Parkinson & Lewy Body Dementia Support Group gets together monthly for meetings with local people from all over the southeast comer of North Carolina in the Cape Fear River area. Our purpose is to share ways to live better for people with Parkinson and/or Lewy Body Dementia Disease and their Carepartners.
The group was founded as a Parkinson support group. Two years ago we joined forces with the local Lewy Body Support group. Researchers have discovered a connection between the two diseases that indicates common symptoms. Lewy Body often becomes a complication of Parkinson Disease so knowledge of both diseases is important for afflicted families.
