Both my mother and her husband have PD. Due to the individual nature of the symptoms they are able to compliment each other pretty well. When either of them have gone through tough periods the other seems to rise to the occasion. I am amazed at how different each of their symptoms are and how they each are effected. My mother suffers from increasing sensitivity to medication with extreme on/off periods whereas my step-father is effected by slight tremor, rigidity, and fatigue. Both benefit from the wide range of subject matter passed on from this list. -- Bill Bell ([log in to unmask])
