Losing the Parky Fear

I don't have Parkinson's but my husband does. I probably listen more than he does, I think he doesn't want to "think about PD all the time", but I feel that information is key on this journey. I learned about you on Movers and Shakers, which I thought was brilliant till I discovered your podcast: they have now been downgraded (sorry guys). I find your approach more universal and enjoyable. You tackle difficult subjects with empathy and grace. Thank you, please keep going, you are shining a light into some dark corners. It is important and it helps. One of the most important things that you do is the highlighting of things that amazing Parky warriors are achieving every day. For anyone out there who has just discovered that they have Parkinson's, and feel that their lives are now ruined and blighted, you are bringing heroes into view and demonstrating that life can actually go on and be fun, that there is more to life than Levodopa and loss.
