Carole James is approaching Parkinson’s with a similar attitude that’s gotten her through many difficult situations in life.
“Being proactive and learning how to live well with Parkinson’s as long as you can is critical because it’s certainly not a diagnosis that anybody would want,” James said. “I’m learning to be more patient with myself … I’m used to going 100 miles an hour, so having to pull back on that is tough.” “, the family was the broader community,” James said. “I was never lectured and told you had to get involved in your community, but you didn’t fit in our family if you didn’t get involved.”
Perhaps no one was as surprised as her when she ended up running for NDP leadership in 2005 and rebuilding the party from three seats to 33 seats. The party didn’t win, but it felt like a huge win in a different kind of way, James recalls. Despite the big wins that can come in politics, there can also be equally big lows. Notably, in 2010, James faced a leadership challenge that resulted in her subsequent resignation.
