Parkinsons with Geoff
Hello everyone. This is my weekly podcast where I will share you you my own experience of living with the cognitive aspects of Parkinson's Disease (PD), and let you know what I do, what worked, what didn't and include some of my very dry British humor along the way. I do this because I want people with PD to try and find tools, tips and tricks that will help them with their own journey, and you are not alone in your journey. Geoff

Parkinsons with Geoff
Episode 5 Part 2 - Discussion with Speech Pathologist Gail Walter, M.S. CCC-SLP, part 2
Hello everyone,
Sorry, one day later than promised, in addition to dealing with the outskirts of hurricane Helene on 26th Sept, the software I use for podcast production and icloud decided they no longer liked each other, so audio files were running all over the internet completely uncatchable - rascals. In part 2 of my discussion with certified Speech Pathologist we continue to explore the relationships between Parkinsons, Aphasia and Dementia. We will also introduce you to a tremendous framework of tools and strategies found in the "Speak Out" program, produced by the Parkinsons Voice Project. This organization was founded in 2005 by Ms. Samantha Elandary, who holds degrees in communication disorders and speech-language pathology. One of the core concepts of the Speak Out program is "Do it with Intent", you can hear more about this in the podcast. Please enjoy, and part 3 will be published no later than October 4th. Thanks to those of you that checked on me to see how I was dealing with hurricane Helene on 26th and 27th Sept, I appreciate your concerns, and am pleased to report no damage in this neighborhood, but please send kind thoughts and support to the residents on the West and North West coast of Florida who have permanently lost their homes, primarily due to the highest storm surge (20 ft) in some areas. Take care and have a good week. Geoff
