The Secret Life of Parkinson's: In this episode, Marcus Woodhouse joins us to talk about his adventures with pickleball and Parkinson's. It's a sport he picked up 1 year before he was diagnosed, but it's also a sport that is helping him more than he realized. It's the perfect combination of exercise, socializing, and constantly moving! He also shared with us that he is scheduled to have CereTom(r) DBS. Marcus and Brian discuss the differences between their two DBS surgeries. We'll follow up with him again soon to hear more about that procedure.

I so enjoy your program. Melissa's calmness and thoughtfulness is a perfect combination to Brian's clever retorts. I would love to see you interview Daphne Bryan on her book on B1 therapy.

There are many mornings where I wake up and my arms ache. It’s like I have been clenching them all night. I’m a back sleeper and have started to sleep with stuffed animals in each arm, as if I was sleeping with my kids when they were infants. It seems to help.

I have so many pillows ("kids"). I call them my kids, too!

I had the type of DBS that your guest was speaking of today. It was a real life changing surgery for me.

Any activity that combines exercise and social contact is perfect for Parkinson's. I always say those are the important things along with medication.

Really like the content you guys are doing. A thought, how about an episode about books on healthy diets, supplements, exercise or anything pertaining to PD?

That's a good idea and I know a few people that can speak to that. Thanks!
