Why I’m Finally Getting Deep Brain Stimulation | This is Parkinson's

After living with Parkinson’s disease for more than two decades, musician Jim Goodfriend reached a point where the symptoms began interfering with the thing he loved most — playing guitar. In this episode of This is Parkinson’s, Jim shares his journey from diagnosis to choosing Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery in hopes of regaining control, independence, and the ability to once again express himself fully through music. Jim reflects on the emotional decision to pursue Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), the realities of living with Parkinson’s for over 20 years, and the role that creativity and music continue to play in his life. This conversation marks the beginning of Jim’s DBS journey — and we’ll be following along as his story continues. A powerful discussion that explores resilience, adapting to change, and the courage it takes to pursue new options when Parkinson’s begins to take more than it gives. ━━━━━━ ꕤ Support the mission of This is Parkinson’s Donate here: https://bit.ly/thisisparkinsonsdonate ━━━━━━ ꕤ Follow us: Instagram:   / thisisparkinsonsdisease   Facebook:   / thisisparkinsonsdisease   ━━━━━━ ꕤ About This is Parkinson’s: This is Parkinson’s is a nonprofit storytelling platform dedicated to sharing honest conversations about life with Parkinson’s disease.
