Vikki Claflin is the author of two books, Shake, Rattle and Roll with It and Who Left the Cork Out of My Lunch. She is a blogger, author and humorist. Her first book chronicles her diagnosis with Parkinson’s disease and her second takes an amusing look at aging. Vikki has the gift of finding the humor in almost anything. She is a guest on the Fun and Feisty segments of the show. First, we discuss the demise of business casual. When did it become okay to wear club clothes to work? Even if you feel like you just rolled out of bed, is it okay to show up in your PJs? Whatever happened to slips? Exposing your midriff at work, really? Vikki and I tackle these tough questions and more! Next, Vikki discusses the importance of humor in keeping a positive outlook and why laughing at yourself is critical (especially as you attempt a pole dance!). Of course, you can’t apply humor to every situation but you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how often you can. And, cultivating the ability to laugh at yourself is essential.

We all heard that Laughing is the best medicine. Vikki is with us today to teach us how we can laugh away our problems. You can listen to the show at http://rockyourretirement.libsyn.com/laughing-with-parkinsons-episode-26 Vikki is an international best-selling author, humor blogger, and inspirational public speaker. She wrote the book, “Shake, Rattle, and Roll with It – Living and Laughing with Parkinson's“.  Since my father has Parkinson's Disease, I had to get her on the show!  She did not disappoint!  We talked about her book, her life, and our ailments, including my dystonia. Shake, Rattle, and Roll with It- Living and Laughing with Parkinson's: A few weeks after her first book, “Shake, Rattle, & Roll With It, Living & Laughing with Parkinson’s”’ came out, she received an email from a woman who said, “My mother was diagnosed with Parkinson’s ten years ago. Since then, no one in the house has ever been allowed to talk about it, or even mention the word ‘Parkinson’s.” This created a lot of stress for the family as we all tried to pretend she wasn’t shaking or stumbling. Any reference to her condition was immediately shut down. I bought her your book and set it on her nightstand. She read the whole thing in one sitting that night. The next morning, she came down for breakfast and began talking about her Parkinson’s like it was the weather. She now talks about it and even laughs about it easily. The elephant in the room is gone. Thank you, thank you. Thank you.” We wanted to bring Vikki's award-winning humor to our audience, considering that many of us have parents and loved once with Parkinson's Disease (including myself).  I wanted to find out how she is laughing with Parkinson's, and she sure let us know! After all, her name has “laugh” in it! Vikki gives us a glimpse into what it's like to have the disease, and how anyone can kick their troubles in the butt by continuing to laugh, regardless of your circumstances.
