Jennifer, Sounds as if your family has been very encouraging to your Dad. He sounds like a remarkable man as well. I am looking into some rehabilitaion possibilities. I'm not quitting. I have not been actually diagnosed as of yet.The Drs statements are impressions only. Some have come close to saying its pd. I really think it is. What ever it is, it is a very personal attack on me. It attacks everything I do. I've played guitar since I was 15. I havent been able to do that in over a year now. I once painted oil paintings, not anymore. I have always been very much a hands on type person. I was an aviation stuctural mechanic in the Navy for eight years. I was on my community volunteer fire deparment until about a year ago it became to hazardous to continue. I was to risky in critical situations. I was in the process of building my own business as an auto body mechanic when this disease struck. Currently thats what I do to provide for my family. I buy wrecks and fix them. I'm just real slow at it.It's getting harder to function daily. My wife and kids help me as much as they can. They too are supportive. I thank God for them evryday. I'm not looking for an easy way out. I'm just frustrated. If it wasnt for me knowing God is in control I would have given up a long time ago. He has a plan through all of this. I'm just searching his will as best I know through the love of his son Christ Jesus. Thanks for your prayers in Christ. dave
