Also, let us know where you and your parents live, and you will probably find some neighbors here. > > Mary Rack > cg for mom Louise 75(age)/6(yrs diagnosed) > [log in to unmask] > Mary Rack suggested I announce myself as new to the list. My mom has just been diagnosed, is 70 years old and I am at a loss as to how to help her. She and my dad are very resistant to outside help and as the only sibling in town with a new 7 month old daughter I am overwhelmed and cannot help her much. I live in Milwaukee, WI. Is there anyone near where I live on this list who might be able to share resources and support networks with me? Her neurologist is not a PD specialist and did not recommend antidepressants yet she is very depressed and in a lot of pain. i have been trying to recommend counseling to her for about 3 years since this all began (but she was just diagnosed last week) but she is very resistant to therapy. If anyone lives near Miwlaukee, WI I would appreciate a reply. Thanks, Jill
