parkinsons


by: dmg on Wed, Jul 25 2007

My Husband got Diagnosed with Parkinson’s 3 Years ago at the young age of 45. I was so upset I did not knoew what to do. This as all of you folk out there know is a unfair disease that no know seems to know much about or how to stop it and there is no cure.

There are days where I just cry and can not bare to watch him as he does not walk like he used to, he is in alot of joint and muscle pain and although he will not admit it probaly very worried about the future.

My outlook on life has changed and I try to keep his spirits up and continue as normal .

Best Wishes to anyone out there that has this and to the people that care for them.

    as Michael Moore, we victims of ‘NIP’ must unite and crush ‘Big-Pharma’s’ $$$ known ‘profit-driven-holocaust’. any ‘neuroleptic’ will destroy ‘dopaminergic systems totally–rapidly–and now they are approved, more than ‘ritalin’ for both autistic/’hyper-active’ children. [more..]
