Mari describes what it’s like seeing and, herself, dealing with the symptoms of her husband’s Parkinson’s Disease.

Nerves & brain >> Parkinson's disease >> 2 years or under >> Penny - Interview 17 >> When Penny was referred on by her GP she was expecting to discover that her symptoms were caused by stress.

Although she was advised not to mention her newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease when she had to change her job she has found that disclosure was necessary. As a divorced woman she can’t help worrying about who will care for her in future if her condition deteriorates.
