Insights from Empowered Caregivers

Suzanne Planck

When we started working with Cecilia, of course I thought all the benefits would be for my husband. But I have been equally as helped by Cecilia‘s knowledge and compassion. I have learned a lot of valuable information about the disease, and Cecilia has extended such compassion and care not only to my husband, but also to me. It’s been such a gift to have somebody who truly cares about both of us, and who has such a deep level of understanding of the disease process and the challenges for both the person affected by the disease and their care partner/caretaker. Having a chronic, degenerative disease like this can be isolating. Cecilia has made me, as a care partner, not feel so alone.

Another aspect of working with Cecilia that I’ve so appreciated is that she’s able to support, motivate and push my husband in a way that I can’t always be effective at. This has taken some of the pressure off that I sometimes feel to keep my husband moving.

Cecilia is a gem, and I can’t imagine being on this journey without her.

I am a caregiver for my husband who has Parkinsons. Cecilia Pulido has been such an important part of my husband's health. I have learned a lot from her on how to help him. We often have exercise homework after a session with Cecelia that keeps us inspired and my husband moving and out of pain. I have benefitted also from her teaching and caring nature.
