On a chilly Thursday in December, Nick Pernisco woke up from his Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery with a few new holes in his head -- and a whole new lease on life with Parkinson's.


In the follow up to his best-selling Parkinson's Warrior: Fighting Back and Taking Control, Nick takes you on an intimate, first-person journey through the full DBS experience. With candor and humor, Deep Brain Stimulation: A Journey to Relief offers inspiration and accessible information on what you need to know about DBS, what to expect along each step of the way, and the renewed possibilities for life after DBS.


If you or your loved one is considering DBS, but you're unsure, or scared, or just want to know more, this book is for you.


From the Introduction


On December 6th, 2018 I underwent Deep Brain Stimulation surgery to alleviate the symptoms of Parkinson's Disease. My first symptoms had appeared in 2009, so it was almost exactly nine years later that I would go under the drill and knife to get some relief. I had some apprehension at first - I mean, it's brain surgery - but I'm glad I went through with it. Although DBS was not a cure for Parkinson's, the surgery set back the clock on my symptoms about 10-12 years.
In this sequel to the original Parkinson's Warrior book, I detail the circumstances that lead me to consider Deep Brain Stimulation, the essential details about what the surgery does and how it works, and a first-hand account of my own surgery. Just like in the original Parkinson's Warrior book, I pull no punches. I give you every detail, no matter how frightening it might sound. My hope is that, after reading this book, Deep Brain Stimulation won't sound so frightening. The reason I wrote this book is to demonstrate that an option exists to alleviate Parkinson's symptoms, and that people with Parkinson's do not have to lose hope when their symptoms worsen. I had Deep Brain Stimulation surgery to give me time to live my life more normally until a cure for Parkinson's is discovered. The second part of this book involves my life after DBS surgery. I discuss some expectations I had about the surgery, how I felt after surgery, and how having a Warrior mentality helped me adjust to a new normal. I hope this second section will inspire you and make you think about your life, remembering that we only get one shot at life, so we better make the most of it. Finally, I hope that by reading this book, you will consider having DBS. It's brain surgery, but it's not so scary, and it will absolutely change your life. I've gotten my life back thanks to DBS, and so I'm happy to sing its praises from the rooftops. I look forward to you joining me on this journey as I recount my story. And please, if you ever have any questions or need guidance to help find the right information for you, write to me since I'd love to hear from you: [email protected].

Good value for the money.
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
This partition package is a great value. I looked at many options and this one had long length to cover an entire room with the six partitions. The pieces went together easily, took about 30 minutes to assemble and has the needed Allen wrench included. It is stable with no fear of being easily knocked down. The black fabric does not completely hide everything and if there is a light on the inside, it can illuminate what is going on. It does the job but if you wanted complete privacy you would need thicker material. Overall it does what I need in that it make a TV room into a kind of guest room of sorts.

Worked amazing during christmas
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
We had a ton of people over for Christmas so I had to make an extra place for someone to sleep so I used these and surrounded an air mattress and made a small shelter basically. The dividers are light but sturdy , not heavy duty of course but not expected for this price. They do an excellent job of blocking out light and are not see thru and worked very well. Assembly was straight forward and even comes with an included wrench but I used my own to speed the process. 100% satisfied

Satisfactory
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
Everything was advertised. But the box it was shipped in was torn up pretty bad and taped up to compensate. Nevertheless, the product itself was not damaged.

Easy to use.
Color: Grey, Size: 6 Panel
These are easy to put together and to use. We have used them with all the panels. We have also used them broke down into 2 and 3 panels. They work well for blocking views. They don't block noise or help quiet the room being used, however. Only bad thing about them. We use them for our Auxiliary meetings.

Everything is perfect! I would buy again in other colors and heights if I need additional separation in the basement.
