Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with Marcie Vallette, a Vermont artist, nurse, and author, to discuss her latest work, Parkinson’s Disease: Comix for Caregivers. Marcie shares her personal journey of caring for her husband with Parkinson’s Disease and how she transformed her experiences into a graphic memoir to support and educate fellow caregivers. We delve into the challenges of caregiving, the therapeutic power of art, and the importance of community and communication in end-of-life care. Marcie also discusses her other works, including Exit Interview and Rama Trauma Trump, highlighting her commitment to using storytelling as a tool for healing and awareness.
