From Loss to Legacy: George Ackerman & Together For Sharon

from The Mark White Show · host Mark White

On this edition of The Mark White Show, I’m joined by Dr. George Ackerman, founder of Together For Sharon, a movement created in memory of his mother, Sharon, who lost her battle with Parkinson’s disease. What started as a son’s grief has grown into a powerful mission to raise awareness, support caregivers, and bring hope to families across the country. George shares his journey from caregiver to advocate, the lessons he learned along the way, and how TogetherForSharon is making a difference for those affected by Parkinson’s. This is a conversation about love, loss, and what it looks like to turn pain into purpose. Real stories. Real people. Real impact. News That Unites!™️
