Many people who do not have Parkinsons become dependent on others as they age. Many older people without PD are unable to care for themselves. Just because you have PD does not mean that you, too, will become dependant, as many older PD people are not dependant on others. Therefore, it is, perhaps something we can plan for, but, at the same time, realize that we may not need it. It is just like insurance, you buy insurance to protect yourself or your dependants, yet you may never have to make a claim. [log in to unmask]
