Yes, it is a serious health condition and there are no cures for it but believe me living with a family member with Parkinson’s is possible. I am not someone who preaches a lot of stuff. I have learned my lessons the hard way. I have a long history of trial and error, repeating the mistakes and eventually realizing what actually works. My mother has Parkinson’s for the last three years. Yes, at times, things get too difficult, particularly now that she has suffered a hip fracture. However, I have channeled my energy towards helping her recover and manage her condition rather than waste time searching for answers like “WHY God did this to us?”…what has happened cannot be undone, so I might as well get on with it. Like some folks say-Life Happens!!
Updated on February 12, 2018:
- Mom's Parkinsonian is here to stay, it will never go away
- Did not expect the stammering to get this bad
- The bone density issue is further complicating matters
- Repeated fractures mated with poor posture is creating every day scenarios that are risk, cruel
- Getting some degree of supervision with her Physio lady now making longer stays
- Search for a trusted maid continues
- Medications have been upped as a part of every doctor's appointment
The scare has now given way to some philosophy on Life and a bit of acceptance...
