January 17 marks the 81st anniversary of the birth of one of the greatest Parkinson's advocates of all time, Muhammad Ali. In this episode, we learn more about the champ's journey from his eldest daughter Maryum “May May” Ali – the stigma her father dealt with after his diagnosis, when she first noticed changes in her dad, struggles with speaking and medication, and how he improved his quality of life. In addition to exploring Ali's Parkinson's legacy, Dr. Michael S. Okun, the head of neurology for the University of Florida Norman Fixel Institute for Neurological Diseases, sheds light on Ali's PD diagnosis. Okun and two other neurologists, the final three neurologists to treat Ali over the course of many years, published an article in October 2022 to clear up misinformation about his diagnosis. Ali was a young onset Parkinson's disease patient that responds to Levodopa which is different if his Parkinson's onset due to his boxing career and punches to the head.

When Maryum was a child, her father, Muhammad Ali, asked her, "What is your purpose?" She replied, “I want to help people.” Maryum's efforts to do just that has manifested in a myriad of ways throughout her life.In the 1990's, she tried to inspire youth by being a role model within the music industry, but the prevalence of female exploitation and other negative aspects within entertainment shifted her plans toward inspiring young people in a more direct way. Maryum returned to college and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work. She has fifteen years of experience in the field of juvenile delinquency prevention and youth development. Maryum has worked with over three hundred youth and their families as a Case Manager and Program Director. She also served as a Regional Manager for the Mayor's Office of Gang Reduction & Youth Development in the City of Los Angeles.In 2016, the A&E Network heard about her work in high crime neighborhoods and invited her to participate in their docuseries, “60 Days In,” where she spent time as an undercover inmate in an Indiana jail. Maryum is the author of a children's picture book about her father titled, "I Shook Up the World: The Incredible Life of Muhammad Ali” that was published in 2003.For the past three years, Maryum has been public speaking, while developing a 3-year pilot program that will provide comprehensive services for youth and families.
