SHAKEN, NOT STIRRED on Clubhouse

Description

Living with Parkinson’s Disease, Not Against It.
“My vulnerability has crystallized my authenticity, and my adversity has become my triumph”

“SHAKEN, NOT STIRRED: Living with Parkinson’s Disease” is my book on the first ten years living with the disease and how I reinvented myself emotionally and physically to live a life that, in many respects, is more rewarding, fulfilling and meaningful after my diagnosis than before. By sharing my lived experience in this club, I hope to inspire others faced with a chronic illness to live their best, most authentic lives, too. Initial subjects for discussion will include: the stages of grief following the diagnosis; living with the disease, not against it; to disclose, or not to disclose; filing of disability claims; it’s okay to laugh.
