Opening Up on Uncomfortable Topics
Wellness Wednesday
There are many daily challenges associated with Parkinson’s disease that may lead to social discomfort and ultimately isolation. This webinar will focus on a few that may be less talked about including drooling, urinary incontinence, dyskinesia and even eating in public. We will discuss how each impacts the person with Parkinson’s and address ways to speak to family and friends about how these visible symptoms cause self-consciousness in social situations.
