Can I appreciate being 76 -- despite having PD? I don't know. Sometimes.
Thanks for the post, I just turned 75. The “inconvenient truth” is that PD = accelerated aging. An attempt to hold back the tide requires a multi- faceted approach on the levels of Mind-Body-Spirit: diet, nutrition (supplements), sleep hygiene, physical training, stress reduction, and whatever contributes to a positive attitude. The idea is to “not go gently into that good night” of debilitation from disease progression. A couple things I’m doing: started strength training with a physical trainer. Goal for myself: strength + endurance (walking) + Tai Chi training = 2 hours per day. Not easy. For positive attitude, my wife and I are studying “A Course in Miracles” (ACIM). But that’s another story. Anyhow good luck out there. And don’t give up.
Way to go John. You're you are on top of it.
Kind of you to say that, Marc. Some days I feel that way. And many days I just muddle through. Keep the faith- JG
You are so blessed to not be young onset. I won’t be 76 for 30 years. Hard to imagine making it that long.
So true, but, oh, to be 46 again. If I knew then what I know now ...
There will be a disease modifying therapy long before you're my age.
When I was 46, I was a distance runner. Best thing I ever did and I believe it is the best thing a PWP could do.
Hi Marc, is the intervention from SoniModul giving its benefits?
Yes, it's still holding. (I have issues with gait initiation and voice, though.)
We ought to be optimistic, Neuro! My friend's neighbor (Florida) was diagnosed when he was 80! He lived another 15 years (recently passed away). He was an Air Force pilot who was involved with Agent Orange. . .
When I was in my early 30s, my friend and colleague had a birthday office party (in a TS vault). She was turning 45, and I asked her how she felt turning 45. Obviously to me 45 at that time wasn't young. She turned and replied to me "I thank God for letting me reaching 45. I hope he will bless me with another 45." I didn't know what to reply, just agreed with her.
Yesterday, I asked my hubby of 83years in age (has PD), does he feel 83? He replied no, I feel 60. I just turned 70yo and feel 50. Hubby also said he's happy.
one of my favorite quotes..... from a pillow on Bette Davis couch....BETTE DAVIS (1908-1989). Quoted by Paul Newman, James Lipton television interview, Inside the Actors Studio, BVO, 31 May 1995..........excellant! cheers!
Getting old ain’t for sissies, getting old is for those BLESSED with a long lifespan.
Old people who complain about being old could perhaps benefit from some perspective
I Thank God for every new day when i open my eyes in the morning.
Getting old is better than the alternative….
Great post! A good attitude has set my life up for happy days even through the @#$& storm PD has put me through. Happy Days!
Christie, so good to hear from you. How are you doing?
Hi Marc,"Youth is the gift of nature, but adulthood is the work of art." (Garson)
You can always make life something beautiful and interesting like a work of art but be a professional in this.
You are always welcome in Italy.
