Hola, Bienvenido a Mi viaje neurológico - Viviendo con Parkinson.

Episodio 1: Despertando con Parkinson

Tenía 27 años cuando el mundo se detuvo. No literalmente, claro, pero mis manos sí comenzaron a escribir una historia diferente.
Mi nombre es Noelia Corso. Soy docente. Traductora. Licenciada en Ciencias Políticas. Licenciada en Inglés. Y tengo Parkinson.
No soy una estadística. Soy un mapa genético. Una historia de resistencia.

Todo comenzó con pequeños temblores. Un ligero movimiento al sostener una taza de café. Un temblor sutil mientras trabajaba en mi computadora. Al principio, lo atribuí al cansancio. Al estrés de una vida profesional intensa.
Pero mi cuerpo guardaba un secreto más profundo.

Una mutación genética del gen PARK2. Dos palabras que cambiarían mi existencia. Una mutación genética que es un puente entre mis ancestros europeos y latinoamericanos. María Mancho, mi antepasada, late en cada célula de mi cuerpo.

Cada día era una negociación con mi propio cuerpo. ¿Podré escribir en la pizarra? ¿Lograré entregar las hojas? ¿Firmaré mi nombre sin que parezca un garabato? Eso me pasaba cuando enseñaba Ciencias Sociales e Inglés en el secundario.
Mi primera inversión profesional no fue un traje elegante. Fue una impresora profesional. Transformé mi limitación en una estrategia de enseñanza.

A los 31, me casé. Pero el Parkinson transformó mi intimidad. Los tacones que ya no podía usar. El maquillaje que se volvía un desafío. Mi matrimonio no sobrevivió.

Pero bueno, pronto, un chip de Tesla reescribirá mi historia neurológica. Estimulación cerebral profunda. Un dispositivo que controlará mi producción de dopamina. Atravesará mi cráneo hasta la raíz de mi cerebro.

No soy una víctima. Soy un navegante.

Algunos días no puedo moverme. Otros, enseño. Algunos días no puedo escribir. Otros, hago un montón de cosas.
Mi vida no es una lucha contra el Parkinson. Es una negociación constante.

Hello, welcome to this new podcast called "POP"ideas or ideas that pop that is to say I will go I am going to talk about different ideas that come into my mind and if people get interested I will keep talking about it or about other topics.

Anyway, uh today we are going to learn about something about Argentina because I am Argentinian for you to know. And um uh So we are going to learn something about Argentina.

We are going to talk about the 100 bill of Argentina.

Well, actually, it is not called dollar, but it is for you to know. It is the 100 pesos from Argentina. Um Well, uh contrarily to uh the US say uh dollars in Argentina, uh at same bill of a same amount of money can have several pictures on it and it confuses to people a lot because we never know what we are going to see in the bills.

But anyway, in the 100 passes bill it is it is a very interesting uh history we be behind it because uh it represents three historical moments of Argentina history.

First of all, we have the 100 100 pesos with the image of droa handinroa.

He was a a a military, a revolutionary milit military who is questioned a lot in the Argentinian history because he made la Campanel delerto, which means the campaign to the desert actually the campaign to the desert is like uh an iron an ironic um expression because the um the desert was in desert.

It was full of people living there of native, uh native, um native people living there.

So actually it wasn't uh inhabited.

So he basically um killed all the aborigines which is incorrectly said because they weren't aborigines because aborigin means without an origin, but he made that he he made campaigns to kill all the natives who were not er who were not um going to adapt to this new society imposed since the uh conquer of the Argentina land, which before was the binat was the virinat Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that this bill shall first the uh the historical moment of the campaign to the desert, um which was um that he also represent modern modernity and uh with a military um how can I say identity.

And that is to say we're going to impose our um our power, let's say.

Then we have the uh, we have a 100 pesos a bill with the image of Adam avitaan, which represents up the whole opposite.

It represents um um first because the first difference is that it is a female so that meant a lot in the because women were represented or weren't allowed to enter into the political feel so easily at that moment and she made several changes um just being the wife of the president, uh Peron Domingo Peron.

So it also shows a shift for the way of um teaching at schools because in the first um moment in the first historical moment, which is which could be represented by Roa uh everybody we' trying to uh do the homogeneization.

I don't know if I'm pronounceding it well a homosgenation of culture everybody had to think equally and they had to learn to read and Spanish and they had to um do the military service and they had to be Catholic basically basically.

This is not said about me, this is this is said by many authors such as like um I don't remember now the names, but that talk about um the imposition of the national argentinian state.

So and lately and last but not least we have the taruga, which is a dear eh um native species species um which represents a new change in a new shift in the education, which is more um um which has more um it is more um, uh I don't I cannot find the words.

It is more um conscious of nature and the importance of taking care of animals, the everything that is related to green, conscious, green conscious.

So um it also represents uh not trying to uh have political fi
