Ordinary Life - The Parkinsons Dichotomy We get riled up about the grim stories about Parkinson's that charities use to attract donations, and how difficult hearing them can be for people trying to live positively with Parkinson's. Are we just being difficult? Or are these contradictory things both true - that it is hard living with Parkinson's AND possible to live positively with it? Kitty Fitton is on a mission to prove that disability and illness doesn’t mean the end of life as we know it. She writes about hating exercise, coping with blended families, Parkinson’s, and trying to reach the bottom of the laundry basket. Play Episode
