Join Dr. Jori Fleisher for an insightful Live Well Today webinar about the non-motor symptoms of advanced Parkinson’s. Watch here: https://bit.ly/4geJ9Ei This session will explore cognitive changes and mood fluctuations that can affect daily life. You’ll also learn practical strategies to identify these symptoms early and ways to enhance quality of life. Whether you’re living with Parkinson’s, caring for someone who is, or a healthcare professional, this session is designed to offer valuable insights.

This encouraging study reminds us that helpful treatment for depression (in people with PD) can be found through counseling.

Celebrate the season at our annual holiday luncheon on Wednesday, December 11. Meet new friends, reconnect with others and sing along to your favorite holiday tunes. #parkinsons #pd #parkinsonsdisease #richardson #dallas #caregivers #carepartners #daps #fumcrichardson
