Hello and welcome to Our Liverpool.
A dad-of-two thought he was just clumsy before he was given a "brutal" diagnosis. Rob Stubbs, 62, was told he had Parkinson's disease after his friend noticed he wasn't picking up his leg properly during a walk.
Yet, despite the condition being uncurable and getting worse, Rob, from Wirral, said he is determined to stay positive with his motto being "‘it is what it is, get on with it." Speaking to reporter Charlotte Hadfield, he said: "You can roll over or you can grasp it and go full throttle and that’s what I try to do."
