Out And About With Jamie Grout
Parkinsons Disease Support Group Best Of Podcast
Many times when I go into a podcast interview I know very little about the subject I will be talking about. That's not all bad as I am also interviewing from the standpoint of the listener. However, the topic I am dealing with today is a topic I know quite a bit about because it's very personal to me. It's Parkinsons Disease. My Sister Deb passed away last November from a form of Parkinson's Disease. During the 6 years she fought the disease I learned much about the disease and the various forms it takes on. In this podcast I speak with folks who are with the Newton area Parkinson's Disease Support Group. They share their stories of how the loved ones in their lives are dealing with this disease and what treatments they are getting to keep the disease at bay. They also talk about their support group and where they meet on a monthly basis. Since this is a "best of" podcast they mention an annual meeting in June so please don't pay any attention to that as the annual conference has passed. However all the other information in this podcast is still very relative. If you or somone you know is dealing with Parkinson's Disease in some way please listen to the podcast and don't be afraid to reach out to this support group. They are here to help.
