Description
How can a woman discover she has Parkinson’s whilst opening a condom in front
of 15 teenagers? Why would a man who suffers from Parkinson’s suddenly start
singing in the middle of a street? Why would a woman hide in a bush?
A
revealing and amusing book of short stories for everybody touched by
Parkinson’s. Unique, hilarious and insightful.
Half of the profits from this book will go to ‘European Parkinson Therapy Centre’, a non profit advanced centre offering multilevel therapy for families and people with Parkinson’s to help them ‘take back their lives'
