    My father died of Parkinsons disease. As a young child under 2 years of age, he fell and hit his head in the middlevof his forehead (the hypoglyceal area if l remember my neuroanatomy). He could only tast salt,sugar, sour, and bitter. This did NOT impede his appetite!, but we never ate salt!!! When he was in his 70's, he began to suffer from micrographia, a rigid neck, saw double or triple, and wasn't himself. He finally lost his ability to turn over and had a huge necrotic bedsore. He remained quite upbeat, and died peacefully in his sleep when he was 80. He was a fine athlete and did regret not being able to play golf. I still miss him.

      Very interesting. I have also read that there can be a rapid decline after an illness. The illness can be almost anything from a cold to a broken hip.

      According to Dr. Ardis and his group of doctors, P. can be treated momentarily by using nicotine gum patches. Cut them into 3-4 mg pieces and use them every day. Rugby's patches are more natural( no chemicals. Chewing nicotine gum is a beneficial complement to patches. Lucy's nicotine gum is more natural.

    This still does not tell the story. Parkinson's for some, steals the body, while the mind watches in horror. The lack of control goes from bothersome, to a full-on battle. Imagine sitting in a chair and decide to stand up, your mind expects your body to perform a sequence of events, and you can almost feel it, the same way you always felt it, expected, but you're still sitting there. Parkinson's is ridiculous, and however long it takes for the symptoms to progress, it still all comes too soon. Especially for those who still had things to do. Diagnosed at 53, 6 years now, and I was in denial of the subtle early symptoms for over 10 years before diagnosis. I'm still learning something new every day. No cognitive decline, but when your mouth won't speak, everyone assumes you've lost it.

      Look up Alex Kerten. I have a friend who saw him once every month. He assaulted her mentally on how she thought about Parkinson's and how she identified with it. Plus, he worked with her in movement, taught her to listen to music and relax, how to walk. I drove her every month, and he had me sit in in the sessions. She reduced her meds by half. Neurologist was of NO help, just prescribed. Alex has moved to Portugal, but he does do Zoom. Has an international clientle.

    My stepdad passed from Parkinson disease. He had the stiff symptoms, no shaking. He was told that his exposure to the Spanish flu as a child was a direct link to his illness. His father, and uncle succumbed to the outbreak, and his mother survived. The entire family lived together,(grandparents and 3 siblings) he was 4 years old at the time and vi idly recalled the events that took place during the ordeal.😢

    I wonder if the growth of Parkinson’s disease could be from poor diet, and eating foods that have been genetically modified. Also not keeping our body strong with exercise, and not taking care of your diet .
    My hubby recently died from Parkinson’s disease.
    It is a terrible slow decline in physical and mental health.
    And yes most doctors do not do a very good jobs treating Parkinson’s disease.

      i recently read a article about "What is the Relationship Between Liquid Crystalline Water and Zeta Potential?" mainly talk about positive and negative ions. The positive ions is yang channel in meridian and negative is yin meridian. I believe our life style contribute lots of positive ions and lack of negative ions(sunlight, earthing etc). I know someone who has plenty of positive and very lack of negative ions has parkinson, he eats very well and really take great care of his body. I press on my few yin meridian points everryday i notice my gum grow very full and my arthritis improve tremendously. Still can't confirm brain disease related to tis.

    At 88, my husband has been diagnosed with PD. No tremors,but has fine motor and swallowing difficulties. He has a-fib. I am concerned that his chronic fatigue may be due to his heart meds. His short term and long term memory are weak, and I’ve noticed some cognitive decline. I am a retired speech therapist and have started helping with his communication and swallowing.He is also in PT and sees a personal trainer one time per week. An ex athlete, he tries to stay active by playing 9 holes of golf , riding his stationary bike, and getting together with friends and family.
    It’s hard to keep him motivated, but I’m doing my best at this point. I have attend meetings with researchers in this field. They feel that toxins in our environment and ingredients in weed killers are contributing factors in the rise of PD. Many thanks for your presentation.

    My dad died from Parkinson's days before his 92nd birthday. He had no cognitive impairment at all, was awake during the entire day, used a walker occasionally. His Parkinson's disrupted his internal organs. It is a complex disease. Even if Biden had it, which WH doctors say he doesn't, he is clear-headed and a man of his word. What else do I need?

    Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?
