In Remembrance
|
This Packer fan saved me from missing my flight or I might have had to go to Wisconsin - not cool for a Steelers fan.
As always, people make the event and this lady has the patience of Job. So glad you signed on here. Paula

No. We hated the Bears, the Vikings too and the Lions. We didn't hate the Steelers, though because they always lost to us.

First of all, sorry to hear about another fallen member, Gloria. Although i never knew her, it is like soldiers who fought in the same platoon in a war from the past. One knows what they went through (somewhat), and can empathize with them. PD gives us all a perspective that we share with few others.
I bought a SUV this week. For once in a long while, I feel like i have freedom again. Getting back behind the wheel and driving and finding out my driving skills are all still intact was a wonderful feeling. Now, on good days, I can do things for myself and not have to rely on others. ONly hav e aproblem with night driving. It seems that PD has had a bad effect on my ability to see at night. Maybe need to chomp carrots all day for vit A. daa, what's up Doc. Saw my neuro on monday, looks like i'm not progressing. I guess i have found my optimum medicaction "Window". Hope it stays like this for awhile. HOpe all of you guys and gals are doing as well as possible. cs |

Hi to everyone! Although I rarely visit the PD forums anymore, when I do it's heartwarming to see the many familiar names, to hear how you're faring. Of course, there's the sadness of hearing that another PWP has been lost, another soul is wonderiing - as we all have! - "Why me?" There's no answer to that, but there's strength, solace, and advice on how to handle PD's trials with grace and humor to be found here.
Me? After 14 years of having PD, I've been bested by it twice in the past two weeks - two Emergency Room visits after 14 years of zero serious problems. For me, I think it was a wake-up call to listen to my body, to take it easy and REST when it tells me to. If you ignore your body's whispers long-enough, it will eventually scream at you! So, I'm listening now. One helpful reminder to share. The first E/R visit was in a small town hospital in Delaware. Totally unaware of what meds were being added to my IV, I was given an anti-nausea medicine that works by blocking dopamine production - a drug PD patients never should receive. I'm sorry I can't remember the name of what I was given, but there is another anti-nausea medicine that PD patients can safely take - again the name escapes me. The point being, we need to watch and question what we're given because even in the biggest of hospitals, PD issues aren't always understood. Nice to "see" you all again. Take care ~ Donna P.S.
