“Helplessness and Hope in Parkinson’s”

Program: Many people with Parkinson’s and their care partners feel helpless. Helpless when it comes to controlling their health, getting the care they need from the right people and navigating a complicated disease process. Because we carry helplessness in our bodies, it’s important that we learn how to relieve it. Dr. Rushton will address how to cultivate compassion-based practices to serve the selfe and others; how to manage the feeling of helpless in each moment; how to deal with the daily losses of living with Parkinson’s; and much more.

Presenter: Cynda Rushton, PhD

Presented by: Davis Phinney Foundation for Parkinson’s

“The Power of Perseverance for Living with Parkinson’s”

Program: Life, at times, draws all of us to the brink, the edge, that point where we simply do not know where to turn or what to do next. We often have a vague notion that there must be something we can do, that there must be a way forward. Often, we’re told to ‘hold on’ to ‘endure the storm’ and ‘don’t give up’ and even occasionally we come across the term ‘perseverance.’ Seldom does it come in a context that can be grasped. In this session, we will unpack what the word perseverance means discovering the many rich, positive, practical skills that can be learned and skills that will take you back from the brink and forward to new victories and new success. ‘Perseverance’ is the way forward.

Presenter: Tim Hague, Sr. Retired nurse, author, motivational speaker

Presented by: Parkinson Voice Project

“How Genetic Discoveries Lead to Parkinson’s Therapies”

Program: With ongoing trials targeting genetic links to Parkinson’s (alpha-synuclein, GBA and LRRK2), our panelists will discuss how we go from discovering genes to creating precision therapies. And we will talk about why you should participate in genetic research even if you don’t carry a known Parkinson’s genetic mutation.
