Jeanne, Are you a PWP or a CG?? That is are you a "person with parkinson's" or a "caregiver"?? At any rate, keep reading, we do understand anger, depression, frustration, and so much more. My children have given me a walking stick because I am beginning to lose my balance. I'm only 48 and have been an athlete most of my life. Not being able to do what I should be able to do at 48 is frustrating. There is plenty for you to learn about here. PD is not only about tremors, freezing, tics, balance, masks, etc., or sinemet, eldepryl, prozac, paxil, mirapex, and so many others. It is about living with a condition that is not hereditary or contagious, does not change your life span or usually directly effect your mind, is progressively worse, and has no cure. It just makes your quality of life a misery if you do not find help, support, and have a sense of humor. I just tell people that I am "brain dead". That's the truth, after all a part of my brain is really dead now. don't forget how to laugh Marling McReynolds [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask]
