Good article. As caregiver for husband with PD (25 years with disease). I can agree with all comments but must say awfully hard to find help. We are lucky to have friend to spend 2 hours per week so I can shop and run errands.
Amazing how just having friends drop in boosts his energy level and happiness!

I can tell you that my husband is in very late stage Parkinson's. If I knew 20 years ago what I do now. He might have been able to live a lot longer more comfortably. I give him a third of a MJ candy a day. It stops the tremors. It clears his thinking. And he stays awake for 6 hours at a time. Our state has not legalized MJ But I buy it anyway, to give my love a little quality of life. Take it anyway you like. But I sure wish I had known how to buy the stuff 20 years ago.
