In Episode 74, Don Priess and I had an incredible conversation withTerri Pease, Ph.D., an Author, Coach, and Consultant for Spousal Caregivers. As a highly experienced professional in the social services and healthcare industries, Terri has dedicated her working life to encouraging Parkinson's caregivers, to make self-care real, practical, and possible. But really, the same applies to almost all Spousal Caregivers - including those caring for spouses with Alzheimer's.
Terri has has also dedicated her life to working with people who are facing highly stressful situations. Her experience has taught her how to provide supportive and trauma-informed care to those who need it most. When Terri married her husband who had Parkinson's Disease, she brought her wealth of knowledge and experience to bear on caring for him. She trained staff in organizations around the United States on how to offer supportive, empathic, and trauma-informed care. Her professional experience has informed her approach to caregiving, and to encouraging Parkinson's caregivers to make the idea of self-care real, practical, and possible. In addition to her work as an author and caregiver advocate,
Terri's book, "Love, Dignity, and Parkinson's: from Care Partner to Caregiver" (Paperback – October 19, 2022 ), is a great resource for caregivers whose spouse or loved one has been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. and are feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to best care for them without losing themself. The book offers a new approach to caregiving that can help ease the stress and anxiety that come with this diagnosis. In this book, you'll learn how to strengthen your caregiving capacity, maintain peace of mind, and live a less stressful, upsetting, or lonely caregiving life. You'll also find practical tips on how to deal with common experiences like changes in mood, challenging behavior, and communication difficulties.
Most importantly, Love, Dignity, and Parkinson's will serve as a constant reminder that you are not alone in this journey. With compassion and wisdom, Pease offers invaluable insights into the caregiver experience, drawn both from her extensive professional experience providing trauma-informed care and from her own years as a caregiver to her husband. This book is an essential resource for any caregiver navigating the challenges of Parkinson's Disease or any challenging disease.
Enjoy!
