Mornings with Parkinson’s – Why the first hours are often the hardest (And what can we do about them)

PART II -Communication, Swallowing, Autonomic Issues and other Non-Motor Issues

Let's Chat About Thinking

With Dr. Jenn Pauldurai

Many people talk to me about their healthy schedules with back-to-back programming, hobbies, and fun activities. But sometimes the brain needs a difference in routine to really keep healthy and grow stronger. Other times change is more stressful for the brain. How much change is good for the brain, and how can we slowly implement a change in routine in a safe and manageable way to support our brain health?

At: Lansdowne Woods Senior Community, Leesburg *New location!*

We feature confidential sharing of concerns and tips from caregivers for caregivers. 
New members are encouraged to contact the facilitator Peg Nugent, at peg.nugent84@gmail.com for address and details.

How do I manage my dystonia?

Dystonia is a frequent, often under-recognized part of Parkinson’s that is dynamic, coming and going through the day.

Join Parkinson’s specialists Josefa Domingos, PT, PhD and John Dean MA CCC-SLP for a practical session regarding dystonia in Parkinson — what to notice, what to write down, what to tell your clinician, and how families can help.

Reporting clearly, plus collaborative, adaptable exercise and therapy, makes the biggest difference over time.

Live a simpler, safer, less cluttered life.

with Maria Spetalnik

Getting older isn't easy. There are aches and pains, spotty memory sometimes, people that treat us like children, and more. Many of us imagine walking into the sunset with our partner, but that doesn't always go according to plan. Aging with someone else has it's benefits and concerns, solo aging has others. Most of us will, at sometime, be aging alone. This can be by choice, the need for someone to live in a care community, divorce, or death of our partner. We are going to talk about what you need to think about now and when preparing to solo age.
