Sherri Woodbridge: A Case Study Take Away

Camille did an excellent job presenting her case study on Sherri Woodbridge. Sherri is an elderly woman mid 50s who was diagnose with Parkinson's Disease at the age of 44. Although she began showing symptoms in her early 30s she was not diagnose until years later. Sherri has a positive outlook on the diagnosis and does her best to make the most of it. She is an avid blogger and has won many awards/recognition for what she writes about concerning Parkinson's Disease. Camille told us all about how she copes with the diagnosis and various treatments that she has received. Although she doesn't mention going to occupational therapy, Camille made some good suggestions on why she should see an occupational therapist and what she could gain from this experience through different interventions provided. Overall, I enjoyed learning about Sherri Woodbridge and the obstacles she has overcame while making the most of the life she has been given.
