Ive been a member of this discussion group, which I call my worldwide support group, for 3 years now. I just want to say that I truly appreciate everyone here for being there for me and each other through thick and thin. We are going through something that nobody can really relate to except us that are going through it together, and being here for each other sure makes it a lot easier! Thank you all for sharing your stories and your knowledge, your wisdom and your wit! If they ever find a cure, i sure will miss y'all.
Love to my dear good friends,

Bass, your message is exactly my sentiments which you expressed so well. We are all so fortunate to live at this time and age when the entire world's knowledge is at our fingertips and since the old saying goes "knowledge is power" we are all truly empowered and blessed to be part of this global group where people are so kind and supportive sharing their ups and downs along with their expertise. This definitely makes our journey so much easier!
BoS, I thank you for such kind words, sentiments that I share. It is a fact that I have seldom come across a group of people who have such intelligence and empathy as the PD community in general and this forum in particular, add to that the courage and endurance required each day, I think it fair to say PwP's are remarkable human beings. Perhaps that is why we've been destined to live with PD................because others couldn't.
Such a kind gesture, sir! I feel pretty much the same way as you do! You have been there for me, and others, when we’ve needed support, sharing, and good, practical advice, bassofspades, over the last several years! Thank you, and I appreciate you, and others, being there for me, in this group, through thick and thin.
I completely agree with all the sentiments and thank you Bass for expressing them so well. Our neurologist is helpful and supportive (thankfully), but everything I have learnt about PD, including new research, alternative therapies, approaches via the microbiome/nutrition etc and just support has come through everybody's generous contributions on this site.
For the record my husband (with the PD) is just starting alfuzosin (from the same group as terasozin) and will let people know if there is any improvement to his tremor.
Thank you for all the help you have given to so many of us.....may it continue! You and several others bring light to a gray day with the information you share!
BoS you are a pefect example of what this forum is about. Generous loving support from open minded people trying to best live with this incredibly complex disease. I couldn't do without it - and you. (Although you're right, if they find a cure we might have to rename it...)
I whole heart agree with all the possitive said about you. I am not as knowledgeable as most of you, but I am getting there by reading all the things that are written. What I don't understand I look up. .......Lois
