About this listen

Caregiving for those who suffer from Parkinson's disease comes with many challenges, from how to deal with guilt and loneliness to avoiding burnout and figuring out what to expect from an unpredictable disease. When giving care, too often caregivers neglect their own well-being.

Everything You Need to Know About Caregiving for Parkinson's Disease is not just about caring for your loved one, but also about taking care of yourself. Lianna Marie served as her mother's caregiver for more than 20 years after she was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Drawing on firsthand experience, her training as a nurse, and the many stories of others she has helped and counseled over the years, Marie shares her wisdom and advice - practical and emotional. Written accessibly and without jargon, Everything You Need to Know provides an essential resource full of useful information for all caregivers of those with Parkinson's disease.

Insightful, informative and true

It’s a real guide book, thanks to have audible as I would never have found time to read this book completely with my 18-20hr work schedule for my mother in every way as described in this book and more.
Parkinson’s and dementia have creeped into my moms life so slowly over the last 24years that it is deceptive to understand whether it is a general fatigued, bored, stubborn, lazy old persons behaviour until I went through all that a care giver and my mom experienced and experiences all that a advanced Pdd patient goes through in the last 4years.
Read this book the moment you see change in behaviour in your loved ones. The book helps me to feel companionate for my mom now rather than resentful thinking she is being difficult.
Now I feel she is trying her best to participate.
