The Melvin Weinstein Parkinson's Foundation (757-313-9729 / [email protected]) offers tailored assistance to individuals with PD that are struggling with financial issues. Call or e-mail them. NOW!!!

Also, browse the Parkinson's Disease Foundation and michaeljfox.org. They might not help much as their main objective seems to raise money,
but it can't hurt. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, so don't suffer in silence and make some noise. Someone will hear it.

My heart is with you, and so is Rip's. Good luck.

Does anyone here know about Parkinson's?
Many of us are dealing with dementia, Alz & other aging needs, yet Parkison's wipes away a person's dignity!
Lets look at khpoteet's situation.

Her young husband has Parkinson's. So does a friend of mine.

The shaking robs a lucid person of speech, a imple task of reading a book becomes impossible since your hands & body quiver all the time, attempting to speak a sentence becomes garbled.

Yet, as I know it, the mind is working inside a trembing body.

I hope I am not overstepping here, but this disease is not silent, altho it seems to be.

I look forward to many post of encouragement & maybe suggestions.
I want this family to keep their home & find sources for dealing with this devastating - often ignored - condition.

YOurs truly ~
