| Publisher Description: Parkinson's disease affects all sides of you: your inside, your outside, and your "right" side-that is, the side where you feel positive, balanced, and beautiful. How do you find that edge when you're not feeling very sharp at all? Parkinson's Diva is a personal and professional accounting of a young Parkinson's doctor's experience with the disease in all realms of her life . . . from doctor, caregiver, and ultimately as a young Parkinson's patient herself. Not only does Dr. Maria De Le n cover important basics of PD and research-based data, she also shares the personal concerns and gender-specific battles that young women who live with the disease must face. She encourages all of us to be empowered through education, self-awareness, and faith. This book is about embracing your own style and grace in your journey with PD . . . as Maria says "summoning your inner diva." |
