Kerrville Area Parkinson's Disease Support Group

Kerrville Area Parkinson's Disease Support Group Parkinson's Support Group Meets the 1st Wednesday of the month 4 - 5 pm
@ Peterson Hospice & Ho

Parkinson’s disease affects the entire family - father, mother, daughter, son, husband, wife, friend; and an extended community of friends and loved ones. If you are affected by Parkinson’s or are the care partner to a person with Parkinson’s, you juggle many new roles and are fast becoming familiar with the challenges that come with living with the disease. Our support group offers a comfortable

setting each month where members and caregivers can ask questions, share experiences, and create friendships. Each meeting offers a guest presenter and we will share educational materials and resources to help you and the person you are caring for. No representations, guarantees or warranties are made with regard to the completeness, accuracy, fitness, effectiveness or applicability of any information or advice detailed within this website and/or given during any support group sessions; nor is any representation, guarantee or warranty made regarding outcomes achieved by applying the strategies, information and advice provided herein. Please consult your doctor before implementing anything presented on this website.

Dear Parkinson’s Community,

I am writing with a brief follow-up regarding my research study on digital health literacy and technology use in Parkinson’s Disease.


So far, 71 individuals with Parkinson’s Disease have kindly participated, and I need 228 completed surveys in total in order to analyse the data and publish the results. If you are living with Parkinson’s Disease and have not yet participated, your contribution would be extremely valuable.

The study involves a 15-minute anonymous online survey on motor and non-motor symptoms and experiences using digital technologies. Participation is completely voluntary and confidential.

I love this book!
Chapter One…Not Just the Muscles
Chapter Two…Resources for the Journey
Chapter Three…Parkinson’s, the Thief
