ROCHESTER, N.Y. — In the spirit of March Madness, Pittsford is shining the spotlight on its own Mike Mooney.

Mooney has harnessed the power of technology to create a network of support for fellow Parkinson's patients. By utilizing various digital platforms, he facilitates communication and sharing of resources among those affected by the disease. His efforts aim to foster a sense of community, allowing individuals to connect, share experiences, and offer encouragement.
In addition to providing emotional support, Mooney is also dedicated to raising awareness about Parkinson's disease. He believes that education and understanding are crucial in combating the stigma associated with the condition. Through his initiatives, he hopes to inspire others to take action and support research for better treatment options. Mooney’s story is a testament to resilience and the impact of technology in enhancing the lives of those living with chronic illnesses.
