I admire Kent for his long commitment to honesty and public vulnerability. Thanks Kent for all your great contributions to software engineering and here is wishing you well.

Some research suggests that highly educated individuals may have a slightly higher risk of being diagnosed with Parkinson. Wishing you all the best.

Most of the memories I have of my grandmother are post-serious Parkinson's progression. She was able to live a very long life, but it seriously affected her. Good luck, hoping for the best for you. Fuck Parkinson's.
