Staying Connected: Nurturing Closeness Beyond Parkinson's
The journey of Parkinson’s disease can create physical, emotional, and cognitive challenges that impact relationships, making it difficult to feel close and connected to a loved one. This webinar will explore ways to deepen and maintain emotional bonds, despite these challenges. Through compassionate communication strategies, shared activities, and tools to foster understanding, participants will gain practical and meaningful approaches to staying close to their loved ones while preserving and celebrating their unique connection.
