I’ve Got 99 Problems But Parkinson’s Ain’t One | Emma Lawton | TEDxUWE

When Emma Lawton was 29 she was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. As a graphic designer, drawing is a huge part of her life, but over the past three years, the tremor in her hands has grown worse stopping her from writing, drawing and doing what she loves. In this TEDx talk, Emma speaks about how she overcomes Parkinson's through breaking the disease down into little manageable problems.
Emma was diagnosed with Parkinson's when she was only 29 years old. Instead of letting it ruin her life, the graphic designer and creative director started her journey to truly inspire others. She encourages people to find their own voice through her talks, designs and a new book.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

When the algorithm actually works in the positive direction, you get to see the most wonderful person with the simplest advice. I see this comment is several years later but her advice is timeless. Watch her other talk. She also says you learn to appreciate the small things.
