Story about Parkinson .

My PD husband is the love of my life.

By: Larry Lee


I am writing about and for my husband who has PD and possibly MSA. He was diagnosed in Jan 2015. We have learned a lot this year and continue to do so as we take this journey together. He has OrthoStatic Hypotension which keeps him guessing what will happen every time he moves from one place to another. Meds control the tremors most of the time. His speech has improved with Speech Therapy. I spend a lot of time researching both diseases but have to make myself step back and not focus on what could happen but focus on one day at a time. Thankfully we have a close relationship to Jesus Christ Our Savior and Lord who guides a daily as we take each step whether forward or backward. WE have an appointment with a MDS coming up soon and look forward to finding out the results of many tests. Praying it is Parkinson's which is a much slower disease.

I guess that is it for now.
