    Episode 10 | The Warrior Behind the Ninja, Cherryl Choi

    This week we have the incomparable Cherryl Choi. Cherryl has been a YOPD carepartner for 18 years so she really knows what she’s talking about. She’s been through so much with her husband, Jimmy, and together, they have become a force in the YOPD world to be reckoned with. In fact, Jimmy encourages everyone out there with PD to go ahead and try. He has become a public figure himself, providing motivation and physical challenges for his fellow PD people. While Jimmy Choi is certainly an entity unto himself, Cherryl is truly his better half and person behind his success and I don’t think he’d mind me saying that. To learn more about Jimmy Choi, visit: https://www.michaeljfox.org/bio/jimmy-choi Jimmy's website: https://www.thefoxninja.com/ You can find Jimmy and Cherryl Choi on Social Media: Cherryl Choi Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cherryl_choi/ Jimmy Choi Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jcfoxninja/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/jcfoxninja/

    Episode 9 | What Makes Your Heart Sing

    What do you do when you work with patients with neurological illnesses all day to hearing your husband has Parkinson's disease himself? Meet Ellen Blake, an amazing wife and mother to 3 whose husband was diagnosed with PD at the age of 38. Ellen works in the field of neurorehabilitation and describes the juxtaposition of the similarities between her occupation and her husband’s medical diagnosis. Ellen uses her creativity and skills as an avid DIYer as a form of self-care and keeping her own interests as a priority in her life to help her and her husband navigate Parkinson's disease in the best possible way. You can find Ellen and all her creations on Instagram @the_mama_that_makes. Her husband, Dave, is @the_dad_that_rocks.

    Episode 8 | Parkinson's On the Rocks

    Ever wonder what is the connection between rock climbing and Parkinson's disease? Molly Donelan, Director of Programs and Events at Sportrock Climbing Centers with two locations just outside of Washington, DC, gives us in-depth insight into this sport's benefits and challenges for the YOPD population. Molly's enthusiasm and dedication to climbing has taken her to the mountains and cliffs of Mallorca, Spain, Orco Valley, Italy, and Joshua Tree, California, just to name a few. Care partners, for us, indoor rock climbing may just be the way to not only motivate our person with Parkinson's to get moving and stay active but also to help around the house (win, win), as you'll hear in this episode. Molly and I share a few laughs along the way, so listen in to how rock climbing can make everyday movements easier for those afflicted by PD and the mental strength that it has given to so many people.

    Episode 4 | An Open Letter To My Husband With YOPD

    I've talked with several other YOPD wives and one thing that I hear over and over again is that our husbands don't know what's going on with us. Why? Perhaps it's not wanting to burden him with our own feelings or bring any negativity into an already tense situation. Every couple is different so I wanted to take this opportunity to verbally relay some of those thoughts and feelings we have towards our husbands and towards the PD so we can all have this open dialogue as care partners with our husbands. I wrote an open letter to all the husbands with YOPD, including my own, as a collection of thoughts from us wives. Fellow wives, I hope I do right by you. And husbands, when you're ready, listen up.

Vivek recounts his reaction to receiving the news and then telling me about it. The tables are turned when Vivek asks me about my reaction to the news.

    Episode 1 | My Husband Has Parkinson’s...now what? Part 1

    There’s a saying in the Parkinson’s world, if you meet someone with Parkinson’s, you meet someONE with Parkinson’s. No two stories are alike. No two experiences are the same. My husband has Parkinson’s disease. I am his wife, mother to his children, and care partner. This is my story.
