Living well with Parkinson's Disease. Essential reading for anyone diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, for managing the condition - delaying or even turning around any progression of symptoms, then maintaining personal health and wellbeing. The central theme is around building a positive mindset, and confidently taking control of the disease - living well 'with' it rather than living 'in' it. 'Leading the Dance' is inspirational, motivational and written in such a way as to be hard to put down - absorbed easily in a single reading, then useful to return to for ideas and maintaining motivation. For people coming to terms with the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, it could be a catalyst for change and a completely new outlook on life. It's also a great resource for carers or those that simply want to know more about living well with the disease. The focus is on healing, recovering to a degree, and then managing the condition through exercise, meditation, maintaining good nutrition and staying 'out there' in the world, as active and healthy as possible. The book moves between light hearted, good-humoured observations and metaphor-based descriptions of experiences with the disease, interwoven with narrative and summary suggestions for the reader. The emphasis is on encouragement and the development of resilience and self-belief.

In 1983, John Ball was almost at a midpoint in his life—a time to assess the first half before he carried on with the second. It was then that he had to deal with the diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease, just before he turned forty years old. In this memoir, Ball narrates his story of how he has lived with Parkinson’s disease and how he has worked to create a better life for others struggling with difficult diagnoses and debilitating diseases. Living Well, Running Hard offers insight into Ball’s growth from isolation into a leadership role in the Parkinson’s community. His long struggle to understand the disease provides an in-depth look at the complexities of Parkinson’s. Ball tells how his transition was triggered by a childhood desire to run a marathon and how his love of running, his desire to take action, and his willingness to take on challenges come together in the formation of Team Parkinson. In spite of his diagnosis, Ball has continued to run the Los Angeles Marathon each of the last fifteen years. Intimate and inspiring, Living Well, Running Hard communicates one man’s story of perseverance and triumph.

Written for fellow Parkinson¿s patients, their families, and their friends, Keepin¿ On chronicles a life of love, loss, longing, work, sports, travel, friendship, and intimacy¿all against the backdrop of progressive Parkinson¿s disease. Twenty chapter scenes explore issues ranging from the frustrating unpredictability of prescribed pharmaceuticals; loss of function; hope and inspiration; overcoming challenge; generosity and the kindness of strangers; the helpless concern of friends and family; expert medical care; comic relief; and more. Keepin¿ On defiantly rejects the initial prophecy¿the crippling of body and mind. It¿s one person¿s version of a condition that varies widely in its symptomatic expressions.

People with Parkinson's commonly have symptoms and problems unique to their condition that can interfere with daily activities. When initially diagnosed they all too often don't know what to do or where to turn. Even when not newly diagnosed, questions often still persist. This book, written specifically for them, clears up questions they may have regarding their self-help. It gives step by step instructions in properly handling daily activities like walking, getting out of bed or chairs, and other potentially problematic everyday movements. It also guides them in finding the optimal medical team to help them stay well. For caregivers there are easy-to-follow instructions in safely assisting a person with PD without jeopardizing themselves or the one they are helping. This book is also a helpful resource for physical therapists or health care professionals who are involved in the management of people with Parkinson's. It is filled with interventions and practical advice.
