When you or a loved one has a chronic condition, where do you go to find support, information and your “community”? People with Parkinson’s may not all have the combination of symptoms, but we are all better off when we seek out and find others like us who will be there for you and lift you up. I am grateful to have found a couple groups that have helped me along the way. I’ve formed friendships that go beyond the confines of my disease journey. As I have heard others say, I didn’t want Parkinson’s disease, but the Parkinson’s community is very special and caring.
I happened to randomly get introduced to and invited to join a women-only group which meets on Zoom every other week. Most of these women are located on the East Coast – mostly in the tristate area of NY, NJ, Connecticut. I love this group and the women. We have honest, open and real conversations, and we laugh. We are all there to support each other, share our experiences and help in any way we can. No topic is prohibited.
I so enjoy this community, I wanted to share with you. So, I asked four members of the group if we could record what our conversations are like and release it as an example for others to recreate if they want. What follows is this recording. I think you will really enjoy the conversation.
