My father: His Parkinson's disease through the eyes of his 9-year-old daughter.
In this story, John Acheson's drawings help his 9-year-old daughter understand the effects of her Parkinson's disease. The story is based on conversations with her, things she has said or done over the past three years and is solely his interpretation. The red tulip (worldwide symbol of Parkinson's disease) grows from a bud to full bloom in the story and brings hope.
One tip:
It's worth pausing the video briefly at the points with John's graphics and enjoying the adorable drawings.
Translation from British English: Gerald Ganglbauer. This version was produced by Jürgen Zender for the Parkinson's Journal.
