Fantastic series of Videos charting one lady’s DBS journey

Produced by Parkinson’s UK, this fantastic series of 10 videos, (to date), charts the journey of Jo Yaldren from thinking about having DBS , through medical assessments, doctors case discussions, tests, meeting with the surgeon and the surgery itself. Very much a personal record with Jo sharing the stages of her condition, feelings, emotions as well as the medical technicalities.

Recommend watching each part in turn, but as the episodes have a title it is possible to select individual sections of interest. Part 1 below.

Thank you for the post. Just watched the first video: it is truly amazing.
