To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download My Mother My mother was diagnosed with Parkinsons 2 years ago. She has very poor balance and has had a few falls. It doesn’t help that she wears long skirts to the ground which I believe makes it eaiser for her to trip. I can tell within half an hour if she hasn’t taken her medication. Her gait becomes alot smaller and shuffly. She starts to slur when talking. And become less coherent. She is also extremely emotional and can cry at anything and I mean ANYTHING. I am looking to talk to people who either care for others or have parkinsons themselves and may be able to give me more insight into how you feel. Mum is only 62 and I am 34 with a five year old son. We all live together. Comments
