In this episode of the Parkinson's Podcast, Heather Kennedy, a person with Parkinson’s who has been living with the diagnosis for 12 years discusses:
• Three articles she’s recently written called “Gifted”, “Poison for Breakfast”, and “Sweating it Out”
• Her journey with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)
• The difficulty of unpredictable ON and OFF times in Parkinson’s and how those times impact relationships
• How her views have changed since the initial days of her diagnosis
• The difficulty of discerning between symptoms that are due to Parkinson’s, medications, or something else entirely
• The burden of explaining Parkinson’s to those who don’t understand
• The importance of having compassion for people with Parkinson’s and nurturing that compassion in all areas of life
