Navigating Email Overload
Tuesday May 25, 2021
The pandemic has put many of us in an email overload — it's been a popular way to reach each other. When our inbox is jam-packed on a daily basis, though, some of these connections feel more like spam! Here are some tips to help balance out the communications we want and need, and those we don't.
Read ArticleYou, Me & Parkinson Pete: on Living & Dying with Parkinson's
Monday January 25, 2021
"Pete will be the first to describe how he has (and hasn't) changed over the course of living with Parkinson's. He does so, brilliantly, in his latest book: "Parkinson Pete on Living and Dying with Parkinson's Disease" (2020). Significantly, Pete also shares his insight on that other half of Parkinson's: dying. This read is not always easy for the daughter of a person with Parkinson's; it is, however, consistently helpful, motivating, and funny. I'm lucky to know the dynamic author of this important book." Read Bette Jane and Pete's interview here!
