This forum is a great resource for PWPs and a place to share useful information that many PWPs can use and it is also a place where members can not only find practical solutions and support, the latest PD related news & updates, but also a place to find moral support when the going gets tough! It will be very nice to keep all of those good qualities intact for years to come!

Definition of empathy

1: the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another of either the past or present without having the feelings, thoughts, and experience fully communicated in an objectively explicit manner

also : the capacity for this

2: the imaginative projection of a subjective state into an object so that the object appears to be infused with it.

merriam-webster.com/diction...

the ability to share someone else's feelings or experiences by imagining what it would be like to be in that person's situation.

dictionary.cambridge.org/di...

It also applies if you don't have PD.

Just to understand the context in which we find ourselves.

After the diagnosis I was desperate, alone and without knowing what to do, then I discovered this site. The courage and the desire to fight are back. Thank you Helen.

This forum, along with Parkinson's News Today and Scott Simon's The Science of Parkinsons are the primary sources of 15 sources that I draw from weekly in building my database named Parkinson's Online - which currently has 3,400 items collected over the past three years.

What is the URL ? I could not find it online.

FMundo in reply to lempa_nik

Parkinsons Online does not have a url, it is accessible only via EverNote software as a Notebook. You download the software, available for no cost at evernote.com. Then I can give you access to the Notebook if you send me your email address.

Dear,

My mother (age 75) has Parkinsonˇs illness. She is now in very bad condition. She canˇt walk, she barely eats anything. Doctors gave up on her. They said that she will die soon.

She cant talk, she doesnˇt respond on questions

I have heard for the late dr. Antonio Constantini and his method 's for Parkinson treatment.

Does someone practice dr. Constantini work?

Can you help me, please?

Regards,

Ivo

Deara Eivovla, I'm very sorry about your mother and I understand your concern, Parkinson's can sometimes be overwhelming for everyone, caregiver , patient and doctors.

However a little help is always possible, but you should write the same message in the form of your personal post and not as a reply to another poster because this way it will work better. This is an easy thing to do and you will have all the help and the solidarity and the answers of the colleagues of this forum. If you have difficulties I can explain it to you better, it's a simple question of form.

Thks, Gio.

Do you know how long or in what time thiamine starts to operate. Is this individual or is it last week or two to see anything, bad or good?

Gioc profile image
Gioc in reply to eivovla

Dear Evoila,

it's very subjective and sometimes takes a little time, but take my advice and open your own post and you'll get a lot more answers in a short time.

can we have the names of the complainants . Can anyone gang up and send multiple complaints and get someone banned ? Is there away the rest of us can have a say or provide input. Is there an appeal process where we can speak for the accused.

Thank you Helen. Here i have come to encounter wonderful, warm intelligent people that makes me feel welcome and valued. I cherish them all. The bits of research are presented discussed and explored. It challenges me to ask questions and share my own experiences, to identify with others, to find solutions together. To realise that we are not alone.
