Parkinson's
I was 24 when I had my first symptoms ( can't sleep at night, eye tremor just to name a few). I blamed it on being a new Mom. I had Tourette's as a child I thought maybe that had something to do with it. After I had my last child in 2003 the Parkinson's came out with a vengeance. I was not diagnosed until January.06.2006. First 3-4 years I went downhill fast and started stablezing in 2010. This year 2015 I was diagnosed with Fybromialga and early Parkinson's dementia, but the show must go on. I have 4 children 1 daughter and 3 boys. My oldest Son who is 21 now has mild Tourette's, my 14 year old has a very rare complex and rare form of Tourette's and OCD and my 12 year old has ADHD, severe anxiety and bad headaches. My daughter who is 25 is doing well. I teach my children no matter what you can anything you want to. I am also State Director of SC for the Parkinson's Action Network (PAN). I am very involved in the Parkinson's community.
