“Primeros pasos en el cuidado del Parkinson” – Webinar Notes

March 20, 2026 By Parkinson's Community Help

Un zapato de caminar dando un primer paso sobre un camino sinuoso que lleva hacia montañas tormentosas, con flores silvestres a los lados y luz dorada sobre el sendero.
El camino es largo y el tiempo es incierto. Pero el primer paso es tuyo.

En febrero de 2026, la Parkinson Foundation (parkinson.org/recursos) presentó un webinar para personas recién diagnosticadas con la enfermedad de Parkinson y sus cuidadores. El Dr. Carlos Ceballos, especialista en trastornos del movimiento en Ochsner Medical Center en Nueva Orleans, explicó cómo se produce y diagnostica la enfermedad y qué pasos concretos pueden marcar la diferencia en la calidad de vida. Carla Velastegui, hija cuidadora de su madre Gina, quien lleva 16 años viviendo con Parkinson de inicio temprano, compartió estrategias para que esos 20 minutos con el neurólogo, dos veces al año, sean realmente productivos.

It’s normal to be nervous about telling people you have Parkinson’s disease.

Telling people you have Parkinson’s disease is harder than it sounds. Even people who consider themselves open by nature can find themselves hesitating, calculating, and in some cases staying silent altogether, sometimes for years. A March 2026 webinar hosted by the Philadelphia & Richmond Veterans Administration addressed the emotional and practical dimensions of disclosure from diagnosis onward.  These webinar notes will be of most interest to those with young onset Parkinson’s who are still employed or those newly diagnosed, two groups most likely to delay disclosure and most likely to pay a price for delaying disclosure of the diagnosis.
