About this listen

Essential tremor (ET) is a common movement disorder. It affects about four out of one-hundred people. Many of us have it but never seek treatment. Sadly, ET robs a person, stealing away, sometimes slowly and other times quickly, skill-based physical pleasures. For Greg, it first took his ability to fish, one of his great joys. Then it took his ability to hold a job. This is a hopeful, and helpful, audiobook. We tremble. We, tremblers, need help with some day-to-day tasks. However, when we decide to retake control of our lives we discover new joys. Greg lost fishing but picked up gardening.

Because people with essential tremors have other issues, we decided to add a section for each of the common issues with some helpful tips. If you tremble and have stress, anxiety, sleep problems, tinnitus, depression, or dizziness, this audiobook is for you. If you stammer, are embarrassed, and feel isolated, we offer suggestions to help. We hope people who live with a trembler will listen our book. It may help you understand your child, parent, partner or spouse. Helping tremblers is hard work for the trembler and the helper. Finally, we hope doctors, physician's assistants, and nurses, will spend two or so hours listening to our audiobook. You are essential partners with us. Thank you for choosing this audiobook.

This is an excellent resource for anyone who has, or knows someone who has, ET. Very thought provoking and enlightening. Great read!

It was more about fishing than living with ET, not really helpful or informative just a boring story, poorly narrated with a few points about how it’s hard to use shaky hands. I thought it would be informative, relatable something more useful and thoughtful. Waste of money for me. The narrator sounded like this is a comedy show- we are suffering with this disease. How about how to deal with the daily struggles rather than make it a joke. I was hoping for something more helpful and comforting.

Very little about ET
