[QUOTE="sparkles, post: 197852, member: 34577"] Thank you HpprKM, It’s true as someone said round here that we don’t choose diabetes it chooses us but equally you can say that about many conditions. In a former life I nursed someone with Parkinsons for several years so I understand what you are saying. Parkinson’s is a difficult condition from the little experience I have.. Moreso because the mind remains fairly agile and together. My patient had very very limited speech which needed time and patience to understand and severely disrupted mobility. I always felt he had a hard time not just because of his condition but because people misunderstood him and his difficulties often. A hard road to travel. That said, to this day I am still glad to have made his acquaintance. He was elderly at that time and is now deceased. But I still feel he taught me a lot about life and that he was a very special person in my life. Good luck to you both. Sparkles. [/QUOTE]
