My darling Dad has Parkinsons. He is 77, and full of love and energy (some days). He likes to travel and is worrying about travel insurance. Does anyone know if there is a company that might cover him? I would be very grateful for any advice so that I can help him.
Thank you in advance.

Go to Google and type in travel insurance for Parkinson’s and you will come up with info that they be of help for you
We managed to make the trips we had as planned with my husband who has Parkinson's. The airlines were very helpful with him, wheelchairs here to there, better seats and so forth. Give it a try. Some credit cards offer help with finding travel insurance.
Do you have extended medical coverage .... we have extended medical coverage with Pacific Blue Cross here in B.C., Canada, offered after retiring.
We can get travel insurance through them but I usually go with Royal Bank through our Vis which is cheaper. Parkinson’s isn’t considered a "complication" with either when answering their questions re. Health.
