Joan B. Weeks, 81, shares her life journey with her friend Joan Nilon. Diagnosed with Parkinson's, Joan Weeks moved to a Catholic care facility where she finds solace in daily spiritual practices. Reflecting on her past, Joan speaks about her late husband, Dave, an Air Force officer, and their life of extensive travel and challenges, including his tragic death during deployment. Despite early dependence on Dave, Joan's narrative reveals her gradual embrace of independence and self-reliance. Her pride in her children and passion for writing stand as testaments to her resilient spirit. Edit Credit: Sean Collins
