Q: Parkinsons and insurance

My husband would like to retire early but we're having trouble finding health insurance for me. I am 55 and have Parkinsons Disease. I am presently insured through his job. Are there any companies out there that would insure me?

I'm note sure to be honest, but you can contact these national associations and direct your question to them:

National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke
From the National Institutes of Health

National Parkinson Foundation, Inc.

Parkinson's Disease Foundation
