Being diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease is always a very scary experience. What patients need is a guide that explains, in simple terms, what to expect and how to deal with the disease. The author, Michael Beetner, was diagnosed in 1994. He quickly became an advocate and worker in the Central Ohio Parkinson’s Society (COPS) located in Columbus, Ohio. COPS has the largest number of support groups in the country. He quickly rose to the presidency, met with many neurologists and other experts, became a prolific speaker before support groups and the twice a year symposia on PD. COPS has always had a monthly newsletter giving him an opportunity to write monthly on the various aspects of the disease. This book is a compilation of the best columns over many years. All are written with a dry (and often off-beat) sense of humor. There are columns for both patients and care partners. There are chapters on his deep brain surgery for Parkinson’s, treatment errors he has seen, and everything else from loosing the right to drive and Sex vs. PD.
