Episode 25: Talking to your kids about Parkinson's
Joining us today is my son Ben! He's 12 years old and going into 7th grade. Ben and his twin sister, Kate were 9 years old when I was diagnosed, but they noticed my symptoms earlier than that (before we knew what it was). I told them both a few months after I was diagnosed, and we talk about the disease often (when I'm fundraising or having a bad day), but I never actually sat down and talked to them like I did today with Ben. But I'm glad I did - kids know more than we think!
