Hi Everyone..Ive still been busy with Spring cleaning, and Im glad that Im finally doing what Ive been trying to get done for a long time..I figured its best I do it while I still can

As most of you know, I went in for a colonoscopy this past week, and its amazing how little the nurse knew about pd..She asked me alot of questions..We've discussed this on the forum before, and you really do have to be your own advocate..We've also talked about pd wrist bands, and Im thinking, if we end up in the ER, conscious, or unconscious, it is probably a good thing to have something that identifies us as pd patients..Now..only if they knew something about it

I have a friend who is not doing well..He has a rare cancerous tumor on his shoulder, and the cancer has spread to his lungs and his liver..has a bloot clot in his arm, and was moved to the ICU because of breathing problems yesterday morning..He was dx almost a month ago, and I cant believe how agressive his cancer is..I dont think he's going to make it home from the hospital..He's been there over two weeks already..The poor guy hasnt even begun to sort this illness out yet..Very sad!

I just got back from the AA Convention, and spent the day there yesterday and today..I couldnt sleep hardly at all last night..It was about 4 am when I got up after about 3 hours sleep..I made breakfast, then took 3 naps so I could make it back to the convention this afternoon..The sleep problem was probably due to the fact that I forgot to take my morning meds yesterday, and remembered at about 4:00 in the aftenoon..

How was your week?
