Dopamine-01

In this initial episode, author Bill Schmalfeldt sets down some ground rules. "If you start "feeling sorry" for me... TURN THIS PODIOBOOK OFF! That's not what it's for! It's about my life as a guy with Parkinson's disease and the other crap that annoys me. This book is designed to amuse and entertain, to astound and enchant... not to enlighten!" In the first of several short, hilarious essays, Bill writes about a whiny daughter who whined about her whiny husband and their whiny kids who were forced -- FORCED, I tell you -- to care for her father with Parkinson's... for MONTHS! Much to her dad's relief, he eventually found a nursing home and died. Bill also discusses his own father, his wild disease and drug-induced dreams, and busting his head on the bedroom wall while doing balance exercises. 100% of the author proceeds from this book will be donated to the National Parkinson Foundation and the Charles DBS Fund at Vanderbilt... so feel free to listen for free and try not to let the guilt BOTHER you. Bill blogs daily at Parky Bill's Parkinson's Disease Place.
