SUPPORT GROUPS
Some people may have difficulty coping with Parkinson’s disease. It may be hard for them to ask their doctor questions or talk about their problems with family or friends. Support groups can help keep people up to date about the latest changes and developments in the disease and aid in dealing with day-to-day activities. They also provide an opportunity to discuss experiences and feelings and to share solutions to common problems. You’re invited to attend any and all support groups to find the one that is the best fit for you. Each support group offers something wonderful!
