Dear John,

Communication is the cornerstone of our connections with others, yet
for those living with Parkinson's, it can present unique hurdles. As
Parkinson's progresses, vocal tremors, softened voices, and facial
masking can make expressing thoughts and emotions increasingly
challenging. The impact goes beyond mere frustration, often leading
to strained relationships, heightened isolation, and even depression.

That's why we're excited to invite you to a special online event
designed to shed light on these communication challenges and provide
valuable insights into managing them effectively. Join us on
Wednesday, May 15, from 2:00 to 3:00 PM Eastern Time for an engaging
discussion led by Speech-Language Pathologist and Get LOUD! Stay
LOUD! founder, Sarah Awde and Irene Doyle, a retired ambulatory
care dietitian at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Prince Edward Island.

During our session, speakers will delve into why and how Parkinson's
affects the voice, as well as direct and indirect therapeutic
approaches aimed at improving communication abilities. From speech
therapy techniques to innovative apps and assistive devices, we'll
explore a range of strategies to enhance vocal clarity and
expression. To add, Irene Doyle, who will share her personal journey
of navigating voice changes due to Parkinson's.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to gain valuable insights, connect
with fellow attendees, and empower yourself or your loved ones on
their journey with Parkinson's.
