I hope you’re all having a productive week! I’m popping in today with my heart still full of a wonderful experience I had recently. As many of you know, my work as a psychologist takes me to all sorts of different places, and on this occasion, I had the opportunity to represent the Tejiendo Redes Foundation and my alma mater, UCLA, at a very special event.

Last Friday, 10 April, as part of World Parkinson’s Day, we were invited by the Xana Foundation to a health and wellbeing event at Parque del Este. My role in this event was to deliver psychoeducational sessions to a group of 27 patients living with the condition.

From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere there was different. Sometimes, from the outside, Parkinson’s disease can be seen only through its physical symptoms, but as I sat down to talk with them, I discovered a world of impressive resilience. Each of the 27 patients has a story that deserves to be told.

What struck me most was hearing how they cope with day-to-day life. I encountered stories full of humour, struggle and, above all, an unshakeable conviction: their diagnosis does not define them. We spoke about the importance of mental health in chronic conditions and how emotional support is the pillar that underpins quality of life. Seeing them smile and share their experiences reminded me of the value of my profession.

I must also mention the excellent organisation of the Xana Foundation. From the very first contact, the service was impeccable, with a receptiveness and kindness that made the work flow much more smoothly. They were extremely cooperative, even arranging transport and providing us with refreshments throughout the morning, which is greatly appreciated when we’re out in the field.

I felt very comfortable and supported, which allowed me to focus 100% on providing the psychological tools the patients needed.
