Os números sugerem uma necessidade urgente de acordar e reconhecer que estamos à beira de uma pandemia emergente. É assustador pensar que, nos países mais populosos do mundo, o número de doentes de Parkinson dobrará para quase 30 milhões no ano de 2030. Essas crescentes estatísticas parecem inacreditáveis, mas elas são reais, e estas são alimentadas por uma população que continua a envelhecer. A idade é o fator de risco inevitável e inegável para o desenvolvimento da doença de Parkinson. Com o aumento da expectativa de vida, esses números ficam ainda mais assustadores. Dito de outra forma, se todos vivêssemos até os 100 anos, seríamos forçados a lidar com a doença de Parkinson, e isso levaria a uma crise mundial. Ao viajar pelo mundo como diretor médico nacional da National Parkinson Foundation (NPF), conheci dezenas de milhares de pacientes com a doença de Parkinson, familiares e amigos. Uma das perguntas mais comuns em suas mentes era "o que posso fazer para que minha vida e as vidas dos que me rodeiam tornem-se melhores?" Eu escrevi este livro para ajudar a saciar essa sede que é compartilhada por pacientes de Parkinson e famílias em todo o mundo. É nesse espírito, através de nossos companheiros de trabalho e colegas, que foi possível traduzir este livro em tantos idiomas, a fim de passar a palavra ao mundo sobre os segredos de esperança e uma vida mais feliz com a doença de Parkinson. Internationally renowned as both a neurologist and a leading researcher, Dr. Okun has been referred to as, "the voice of the Parkinson's disease patient." He has an international following on the National Parkinson Foundation's Ask the Doctor web-forum. His many books and internet blog posts are brimming with up-to date and extremely practical information. He has a talent for infusing his readers with positivity and optimism. In his current book, he unmasks the important secrets applicable to every Parkinson's disease patient. For some sufferers the secrets have translated into walking again, for others they have restored voices, and for many they have resulted in the lifting of a depression, anxiety and desperation cloud. "There isn't any joking with Dr. Okun about the 10 Secrets for a Happier Life in Parkinson's disease. This book is a critical resource for Parkinson's disease patients and families from around the world who speak different languages, but suffer from very similar and often disabling symptoms." -Muhammad Ali The book addresses current Parkinson's disease issues and also details emerging therapies (DBS, stem cells, vaccines, gene therapy, optogenetics). Okun masterfully breaks down all of the science into an easy to follow and pleasurable reading experience. Parkinson's Treatment: 10 Secrets to a Happier Life is available in over 20 language translations, and also in an audio version. Dr. Okun has truly helped thousands of Parkinson's disease patients and families discover the core values necessary to achieve happiness despite living with a chronic disease.
