Retired state employee, proud husband, proud father, proud grandfather, humbled member of the People of the Way.
Most Saturday nights when we go to the services at Trinity Church in Lansing, I avoid verbal communication with just about everybody, except my wife. Why? My Parkinson's Disease (PD) has reduced the volume of my voice to just about a whisper and a strained one at that
I wish I would have paid closer attention in my high school and community college biology classes back in the sixties. As I move far along in my seventies I realize that my body is being challenged by old age
God give me the grace to trust you about my Parkinson's Disease" I was walking out to the parking lots at the clinic for the MSU School for Human Medicine while talking to my daughter Krista about my diagnosis of having Parkinson’s Disease when she started to cry. "God give me the grace to trust you about my Parkinson's Disease" I'm having to digest the news about my carotid arteries Just got done with the doppler on my carotids and learned some stuff This is my city's portion of the infamous Reddit blog where individuals contribute.
My surgeon said the doppler taken yesterday showed that my left carotid is still completely blocked and always will be. My right was described by the doppler techs as less than 50 percent. But Dr. Controneo said after watching the video he would estimate the flow as being 20 to 30 percent restricted. My life goes back to a new normal which will be shaped by my appointment with a neurologist on Monday to check if my brain tumor--a menginoma--has taken on a new twist or if I have Parkinson's as a couple of healthcare providers have suggested as a possibility.
