You are really hitting some home runs with your writing Beehive. Truly impressive.

I have not been diagnosed with PD (except by Marc) so maybe I should not weigh in, but I will. Yes, if I could make whatever is ailing me go away, sure I would do it. My plan was always to be surprised by a brief illness in my 80s and be gone.

That Maya Angelou, could she write! “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you”. A lot of my story got told. A lot did not. Makes me want to try hard to get more of it out.

Hang Tough.

Bolt I always look forward to your opinions on whatever it's about!Unfortunately, I will always have an untold story, but it's by choice.

Wow! That’s quite a diatribe by Maya Angelou! You get us thinking, at 2am, Beehive23 - it is a good thing! Whenever I get discouraged, fighting the daily trials of living with advancing PD, I think that there are having ailments, way worse, like ALS, and a painful, deadly cancer, or, like my wife, who’s in heart failure, and being able to breath in enough air, where she’s always somewhat short of breath, is constantly a struggle, all day long, with no relief, ever! So, all in all, I’m thankful! Also, I have had all the shots, and have never gotten COVID! That is, also, something to be thankful for! Importantly, though, I have my fellow PD friends here, on HealthUnlocked.com, whom I can commiserate with at 2:00am, or any other time, any day I want! Thanks to all for supporting each other!

Beehive it looks like another great post to me .We may have lost abilities and we can not accomplish much.

We rely on our wives to drive us everywhere.

I cant even cut the grass.

Not really earning my keep

A burden to my family and Society

But we can make a decision to be as happy as possible and lighten up and make the others around us as happy as possible also.

Happiness is a state of mind, and you can be happy if you have a mind too.

Seems crazy with all this pain and problems and it takes work but you can do it if you really try

Sometimes it’s very hard to be upbeat and grateful. Sometimes it all just sucks.Travelling with PD is a nightmare. I’m currently a long way from home and wondering if I even have the strength to get back.

Onwards and and Happy Canada Day (or whatever they say here).

it sucks all the time....im not gratefull just trying to take a pile of horse crap and change my mind/perception about it...its still a pile of crap....maybe i can make some fertilzer with it for my existential garden.

Yes, but…that fertilizer is pure gold. And gold you wouldn’t have had without PD. I’m close to 7 years in, just starting to encounter some of those inner resources. First five years I ran on fear: obsessive on diet, exercise, etc. Now I’ve realized how that stress has damaged my body too! So I’m starting to learn how to manage stress better. Having difficult family circumstances, working on BOUNDARIES.

Beehive 👏

What you say is called responsibility.

Something that starts from taking care of yourself and extends to taking care of others and all Life.

The “Greatness” lies in continuing to do so despite the enormous difficulties.

Beehive You are a Great. 🙏

Great post, Beehive. Good thing the last bastions of non money makers are here, in healthunlocked.com and we can share some of our untold stories at 2 am...or any other time when like they say in the 12 steps of AA and other anonymous groups, "we can share our experience strength and hope"and also our vulnerabilties. Stay strong, or stay trembling and weak or tearful( you caught me this way this morning in Ireland)but stay there, keep coming back so we can weave our stories into a beautiful flying bird that keeps singing.
