    Yes I absolutely do. Fist let me say that my father lived until the age of 95 and he was never ill that i can remembe. My mother died at age 99 and she had a bit of dementia but was otherwise healthy. I am the eldest of four the others are boys and none of them have had any serious illness.

    I was tested for the Parknsons gene and i do not have it.

    I believe that i got PD from living in California on a horse ranch  for 15 years. I had a small ranch only 20 acres but it was surrounded by several huge ranches. From 1979 until the spring of 1994 they sprayed insecticedes and weed killer from air planes every two weeks. There was no way to escape it. i started to show some signs of PD in 2005 and was finally diagnosed in 2018.

    Yes i think that barefoot is better in general for your back, posture, balance. BUT i have recently found something that works fabulously for my chronic  lower back pain. It is called a Kailo Pain Patch. It does not contain any medicines and it works by nano technology. To find out more info go on line to GoKailo.com. I have been using mine since December and i think it is fabulous.  I live in a large senior development where we have a large PD population, and i have recommended this to many of my friends. I am in no way connected with this company but when i found something that stops my pain in ten minutes. WOW
