RTE viewers have hailed fashion stylist, editor and Parkinson's disease campaigner Annmarie O'Connor for her "inspirational" interview on the Tommy Tiernan show tonight.
The brave Cork native revealed her battle with Parkinson's disease and how she was diagnosed with the neurological condition in December 2021. She told Tommy: "I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in December 2021, during lockdown I noticed a pain in my shoulder that became a shooting pain."
Annmarie then developed a tremor followed by other symptoms like restless legs syndrome. When asked if she finds her condition humiliating, Annmarie replied that she does not because she is "really stubborn."
