Parkinson's Stories

Where one might normally have to consult a "Parkinson's Disease Handbook" on how to treat and/or recognise PD - and it is likely to also contain technical language and/or jargon - Miller Caldwell's compilation of Parkinson's Stories contains an informative and entertaining collection of easy-to-read stories and information from People with Parkinson's. In addition are thoughts from a few medical researchers and a neurologist, for good measure!! And the stories' length varies from 1 page to 15 pages long. An excellent book for anyone with or interested in reading about Parkinson's Disease. Dr N. Ari Naidoo (diagnosed with Parkinson's 2013) South Africa

This book is very well set out with a variety of styles including cleverly adapted rhyme. It is an easy read with fantastic diversity. It becomes a real page turner with readers becoming transfixed on these stories from around the world. I think this shows writing can be used as a creative tool to express yourself and at the same time helps with coping mechanisms for individuals living with Parkinsons, giving them the space to move forward.

A great read giving insight into how Parkinson’s Disease effects different people in different ways.

This a beautifully put together book about the Most, miserable, modern disease. The sufferers tell their often remarkable stories in so many different ways. This we hope, will allow and educate those who have been fortunate enough not to suffer or meet this scourge on humanity. Please remember the partners who can only watch as their loved one's health deteriorates.
