Many people know how Parkinson's disease "looks," but only those afflicted with the neural disorder truly know how it "feels." They are continually forced to engage in combat with their own brains for control of their bodies' physical and mental functions. In his book, Terry Currey provides readers with his mind's view of the disease from inside his dysfunctional brain. He counsels sufferers to overcome their fears about PD and its impact on their future quality of life, while explaining in lay terms what is happening to them and what course the disease typically takes. With both humor and pseudo-drama, Currey steers sufferers and care givers away from the self-pity that he calls the DARK Side and shares with them the methods he has found to effectively cope with Parkinson's more common symptoms. In his Forward for the book, nationally recognized neurologist and Parkinson's researcher, John Bertoni, M.D., Ph.D., describes Terry's persistent determination as not only an appropriate strategy for dealing with Parkinson's disease, but also a worthwhile model for life, in general. If you suffer from this debilitating, degenerative disease, love someone who suffers, or have a friend who suffers, this book will answer many of your questions as it outlines a proven battle plan for waging war with Parkinson's.
