2023 January 9, 20:40 California – Teresa Jade LeYung’s blog post #619
Dear Reader,
Today I responded to a post from a fellow-member of Women’s Brain Exchange network. Her subject line was: “Recommendations for Parkinson’s”
I wish to share my response through this blog post.
I cheer for all brave folks who are coping with disease and illness and all the compassionate advocates!
I was an advocate for my father – he thrived in spite of Parkinson’s.
Information is powerful! What I had learned as an advocate enriched my own life and also everyone else’s in Papa’s community.
Be ahead of the game – know that Parkinson’s is a movement disorder… thus, find (not just a general neurologist) but a neurologist whose patient base is mainly movement disorder patients and who does not rely on “old” techniques.
Same for physical therapists – folks who aren’t trained in movement disorders caused heartaches for Papa. The right folks taught my father ways to “refresh” the brain.

When one is not feeling well… learning new ways to improve one’s health can be overwhelming. I wish everyone compassionate advocates to help make the journey a gentler one.
