1988

Warp into the week--PD support group this morning. I decided to go and am glad I did--it was good to touch base with everyone. People's stories are many and varied--and some are having to struggle a lot. The only thing I don't have is a personal caregiver--many others have someone and it must make their lives less anxious.

The support group leaders are dealing with all manner of issues--PD, cancer, an aging parent, and probably more.

I need to start doing some form of exercising--something that will let me bridge from my current state back to my full exercise program. Right now I'm just drifting through the days--and no doubt losing some of what I had gained over the past year or so.

I had a big burger today for lunch--and a yogurt and vital red with prune juice for dinner. I had several cookies/muffins at the meeting--and a green tea Frap in the afternoon. Plenty of calories--no balancing exercise.

I received a decline from the medical group regarding using an out-of-network movement specialist--not unexpected. They pointed me to a neurologist--I'll see him and at least make sure I can continue getting medication.

It's quiet here today--my daughter's family is fighting off some bug.
