Publisher's summary
Corey King was diagnosed with a chronic, incurable disease at age 47. Eight years later, Corey continues his story of fighting disability with humor, honesty, and realistic optimism.
Walking with Parkinson chronicles Corey's journey from diagnosis through denial and acceptance and finally, to defiance. He believes that challenges are made to be overcome and that we all have a purpose, and he illustrates his belief with stories from his own life.
Leavened with wisdom created by adversity and compassion learned from friends and family, Corey's story of finding faith, purpose, and peace in troubled circumstances is an uplifting reminder that we all have challenges and that we all have the power to choose our responses.
Walking with Parkinson contains the complete text of Corey's first two books, Walking the Crooked Path and Stumbling Toward Victory. A third book-length section, "Seeking the Way Home", and an added introduction to the combined edition are also included.

Are you busier than you want to be? Than you need to be? Than you are meant to be? It's time to break busy. We are all spread too thin, taking on more than we can handle, trying to do so much - almost as if we are afraid that if we were to take a moment of rest, we might discover that all our busyness is covering up an essential lack in our lives. But God never meant for us to be so busy. God desires for us peace.

The first part is the best part, where he talks about his life. The narration was a little wooden but seemed to go with the subject.
