Summary: Practical, Positive and Personal
Comment: This is a book that offers very PRACTICAL suggestions (because they are tried and true) ways to approach life at a time and in a circumstance when you might want to give up. It is POSITIVE without overlooking the problems and hurdles to overcome. It is PERSONAL as it depicts the adventures of a very talented and vital personality coping with a life of change and uncertainty.

Whether you have Parkinson's or not, whether you are a caregiver or not - this book will inspire you to approach life with a positive attitude and a practical application.

Summary: Hope: Four Keys to a Better Quality of Life for Parkinson's
Comment: I really appreciated the upbeat message of this book. The author shares a simple plan for dealing with the challenges of a chronic disease, without whitewashing the difficulties of daily life. He also shares a lot of personal examples, many of which I was able to identify with. My mother has Parkinson's and I've done quite a bit of research, reading, etc. This book fills a gap in the literature that's out there; most of the information is dry, "this is what's happening now, here's what the patient can expect in the future." It was great to read something that really does give hope and is full of positive, realistic encouragement. I like the author's "take the bull by the horns" attitude.

Summary: HOPE is for everyone
Comment: This book was written for Parkinson's People and is a must read for anyone with PD and their families. I loved the book so much I have given copies to family and friends who don't have PD. Why? Because HOPE has something to teach us all about living with adversity (presented here in the form of chronic illness) in a way that builds on our strengths while learning to adapt to uninvited change.

Especially strong are Hal's ingsights about relationships: life partners, family, physician, and friends. I literally could not put this book down and read it in one sitting.
