Today I have been married for 45 years! I am looking at the photo of my wedding day and thinking........did I know or have any idea what life would have in store for me then? No one ever thinks they are going to lose a child or get a terrible disease. I really knew very little about Parkinson's until I was diagnosed. I never knew of a family member or friend who had PD. The only celebrity I knew who had it was Michael J Fox. Since I have been diagnosed I have anally read so much about it. I know there are several stages of PD. I don't know whether or not it is better to believe that you could get the disease if you have a family history or is it better to not know anything at all?? I am a person who likes to know everything available, I want to know what to expect in life. There is no true one size fits all for PD. I believe that my PD is a result of using too much Round up weed killer or from taking Compazine many years ago. I got really sick to my stomach and the doc put me on it for close to a year. I had many test done and was hospitalized for a few weeks when I was in my early thirties. I guess the reason doesn't really matter but I would like to know all the possible information available.Dan and I went to the cemetery today to visit Amy and then we came home and I spent a few hours reading!.

I still am having the big "C" problem. I am trying some of the suggestions that were given to me. I am eating prunes(yuck) and drinking prune juice(double yuck). Thank you to whomever suggested drinking it with added 7UP soda. At least I can tolerate it that way. I was looking in my fridge at the prunes and the prune juice and thinking....gee, an old person lives here! And an old person does......IT'S ME!!! When I am out of sorts physically, my PD goes haywire. It is more difficult to walk and my sciatica kicks in!!
