Kerry Rae Connolly was getting ready to celebrate her 40th birthday when her husband, Harry, was diagnosed with young onset Parkinson's disease. A few years later Harry had a massive stroke while undergoing deep brain stimulation and, in an instant, Kerry Rae became his full-time care partner. In this episode, Kerry Rae talks to co-hosts Brian Grant and Heather Kennedy about how optimism, laughter and support from others helped them cope until Harry passed away in 2021.
