Read along with your child to spark conversations about Parkinson's disease. Making light of a difficult subject was intended to bring awareness and comfort to all ages. Relatable characters and traits help little hearts better understand what a loved one dealing with this disease may be feeling.
Simple text and comparisons encourage a whimsical way for kids to find comfort over concern when in the company of someone with Parkinson's. Understanding that Parkinson's disease is much more than shaking is important for all parties to acknowledge for the sake of their loved ones.
This is not an in-depth book on Parkinson's disease but instead a gentle reminder of how your loved one has little control over the changes taking place. Family members often become deflated and distant, accepting your loved one did not choose this version of themselves is important for all to recognize. I encourage additional research and education to avoid the unfortunate consequences of this difficult disease. I send love and patience to everyone affected by Parkinson's disease.

This is my own coming of age story, told poetically. While the world was on fire with revolution in the sixties, I found my own liberation. Leaving behind those uptight, schoolgirl ways for all the excitement and experience that could be devoured living in New York City, I chronicled my evolution in poetry. Like all young people, I needed to express those bottled-up feelings about love and romance, religion and spirituality, sadness and joy, war and peace. I saw myself as a pilgrim on a self-awareness journey and a seeker of enlightenment, as I opined once in my poem sometimes, but I never feel holy like a nun, maybe that will come when I feel like a radiant sun. Whether you are on your own adventure right now, or recollecting your own metamorphosis, I wish you Godspeed!
