Sherri Woodbridge-case study-Neuro Aspects

Sherri Woodbridge is a woman who does not let a disease hold her back. Before she was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD), she worked full time and enjoyed playing with her grand kids. After she was diagnosed at age 44, she now works at home as a freelance writer. She still plays with her grandkids, however it may look different. I love that she still works doing what she can to keep using her fine motor skills in her ADL's. She could no longer work out of the home, so she bought work to herself at home. She started writing a blog that has won many awards for the way she details PD. She is wanting to get away from taking medications for her symptoms. It looks like she may not have experienced occupational therapy (OT). This could be beneficial to help stop taking medications to manage symptoms. An OT may be able to help with different exercises or tips. However, medications may be the only way to manage symptoms. Sherri is an extraordinary person!
