Recently diagnosed with young onset Parkinson's disease, Asabi (A-sha-be) moves her young family from Africa to the UK. The upheaval throws her whole sense of self into question. Challenged by haunting visions and stigmatised by her community, she struggles to reconcile her changing identity with her culture, Christianity, diagnosis, and motherhood. Feeling alone, she turns to her Aunty Tiwa, who is living with Lewy body dementia, to find the answers she seeks. This inspiring journey, based on true events, brings a fresh and informed perspective to the link between Parkinson's disease and Lewy body dementia, while highlighting everyday ways we can improve our own brain health.
