Here is a marvelous guide for anyone affected by Parkinson's disease--patients, caregivers, family members, and friends. Containing the most up-to-date information on the disease, one of the most common neurological disorders, it discusses the available treatments and provides practical advice on how to manage the disease in the long term. Emphasizing life-style adjustments that will provide a better quality of life and moderate the burden for patients and their loved ones, the book answers many questions and clarifies misunderstandings regarding the disease. Written by two experts on Parkinson's disease and a freelance journalist, the book is approachable and easily understandable. Question and answer sections are provided, while "hot topics" are highlighted for easy visibility. The authors have also included true patient stories that will both inspire and instruct, and they have addressed several topics often not mentioned in physician-directed disease management, such as how to talk to family and friends about one's life with Parkinson's.

"Anne Atkin endured many of the symptoms of Parkinson's for eight long, frustrating and painful years. When she was finally diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, her reaction was mixed. She was glad she finally knew the cause of her symptoms but she wasn't happy about the label that came with it. Anne made up her mind, she knew there were some fights she could never win but there would be many that she could, so she set about doing just that. Working on overcoming each challenge one by one, Anne trained her facial muscles to smile and when she succeeded she began to laugh again. With the help of others she set about using art as therapy... Anne has identified many of the challenges of people with Parkinson's. Dealing with them in a light hearted fashion, Anne shows ways in which loved ones will be better able to understand what changes are occurring..."--Back cover.
