WANTED: PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISION YOU'LL EVER MAKE ABOUT PARKINSONS.

[MyownPOV]

A WOMAN 30 - 60 YEARS OLD.

MUST HAVE A WONDERFUL HEART, (AS IN LOVE) ,A KIND DISPOSITION AND MOST IMPORTANTLY...HAVE PARKINSONS.

AS I GROW OLDER IT BECOMES INCREASINGLY MORE EVIDENT TO OTHERS THAT I HAVE PD, AND I GET THEIR "AWWW,'' LOOK. I'M SICK OF PEOPLE'S SYMPATHY. THEY CAN SHOVE IT. EVENTUALLY, CARETAKING BECOMES THE ISSUE. BUILT-IN CARETAKING GOES WITH HAVING THAT WONDERFUL HEART I SPOKE OF.

YOU KNOW IT WHEN YOU HAVE IT.

FOR ME, PRETTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER. I WANT SOMEONE TO WALK WITH, TALK WITH, AND REST MY WARY FEET WITH.

I AM A SCREENWRITER. MY QUIET TIME IS ARMS AROUND MY NECK FROM BEHIND READING WHAT I WRITE......AND A KISS ON THE CHEEK.

AND DON'T BOGART THE SINEMET.

It means everything to have such a sweet love. My husband never questioned our union-it was complete and automatic--go for it Buddy!

[quirkyme]

we all need that special 'other' person, the easy companionship.

Tell any potential suitors that the end of PD is a long way off and

as an authority I know says, the end stages of this "are probably

(far) less bad than you imagine.

My husband was diagnosed in 2007 and is doing well. WE work at it

and it's a good life, all told. It's like early aging in some ways.

Any woman or partner who isn't with you for the long run, is not

worth your time--or love. Good luck.

Ha ha, I now fit that profile ! I can walk, some times a bit slow to star , but gradually pick up speed. I did not expect to have to put up with this Parkinsons business, certainly wasn't on my agenda. But will not be beaten, still working, still travelling,India last November, Barcelona April and deciding where to go next . Worst thing for me is when I tell people I have PD, they say " but you look so well"! Tell me how I should look then ?

i rarely thinking about having PD. i'm to busy trying to get done with what i have to do in a day. just moving slower, so it takes longer to do it.
