Ep 28 - Positive Grief: Navigating Loss, Huntington’s Disease, and Finding Hope.
Description
Paramjit experienced a haunting premonition about her husband’s funeral, shortly before receiving the devastating news that he had been involved in a traffic accident. Following a head injury, he underwent a brain scan, which revealed the presence of Huntington's disease. Tragically, Paramjit’s husband succumbed to this illness in October 2002. Just a day later, their daughter, Sheenam, was diagnosed with juvenile Huntington’s disease, a far more aggressive variant of the condition.
In the wake of profound loss and the ongoing anticipatory grief surrounding her daughter’s diagnosis, Paramjit has emerged as a remarkable authority on the complexities of grief. Despite these overwhelming challenges, she is affectionately known as "Positive Paramjit," embodying resilience and hope in the face of adversity.
