Yum! I love mangoes. I was just in Trinidad and I had the pleasure of enjoying some very fresh and ripe mangoes picked right from our neighbour’s tree. It was such a treat!

Ally started the topic Does anyone else in your family have PD? in the forum Living With Parkinson’s Disease 14 hours, 19 minutes ago
Challenging experiences in life can be very isolating, and while I’m sure none of us would wish PD on anyone, sometimes it can help to have a friend or family who is on the same journey. Does anyone else in your family have PD? Were they diagnosed before or after you? Have you found it helpful to have someone to relate to?

Ally started the topic How much do you understand about your medication? in the forum Parkinson’s Disease Medications 3 days, 15 hours ago

Does your doctor make time for questions about medications during your appointments? Have you found any helpful resources (like websites, books, etc.) that could help others…[Read more]

Hi Ally, Yes I have been living here all my life. My husband is French. The best part living on an island is the beach, and the fruits in summer I would say – mangoes and lychees……

Hi Jean, I am 57, and my husband 58, going on 59 next month. We are both still going to work. Although this morning he told me that he is feeling tired, and might consider stopping. Well we will see how it goes….. And yes it was not at all in our plans to move. So we are talking about it again and again… in order to take the right decision.

you will know when the time is right. After my soulmate passed away in 2015 and I was diagnosed months later with PD, I knew I would have to eventually leave my house but I didnt actively pursue or research any options. In 2016, my cousin invited me to a marketing luncheon at a CCRC near where she lived as her and her husband were thinking of…[Read more]

It occurred to me this week that the year 2020 is only 6 months away! I can hardly believe it. I’m going to set aside some time this weekend to reflect on the last 6 months and the 6 months yet to come. I have moved forward on some goals but I still have a long way to go on others. I need to sit down and make a plan to make the most of the next…[Read more]

Jean Mellano replied to the topic Should we move house? in the forum A Forum for Parkinson’s Disease Caregivers 5 days, 16 hours ago
Amelie, a major life change decision (especially if it was not in your plan ) deserves a fair amount of discussion between you and your husband. As for the future, I have found for myself, it is best not to worry about what could happen with my PD progression and focus on what I do have in the present moment. Yoga and meditation has helped me…[Read more]
