My younger brother has this dreaded crap. 3 weeks ago his pal found him passed out on his front room. They took him to the hospital and revived him. Now he has to go to a assisted living center. It's too bad he had a beautiful newer home full of great antiques. His Corvette, Harley, and home will have to go. He lives in a retirement type village in Arkansas. I've seen him once in the past 15 years. His speech has gotten so bad I cannot understand him.

Sorry to hear about your brother. Do you know if he is taking any medications, to help with the symptoms?
Years ago, there was a gentleman in our neighborhood, who had been a heavy equipment operator for years and years, he developed Parkinson’s so he retired from the H.E. industry and purchased a tavern. He ran that tavern for years, sold it shortly be for he became incapacitated.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

Prayers he can find someone that can help him. I have seen where they implanted magnets in some peoples brain and it stopped their tremors. Also saw where medical cannabis solved some of the tremors. God Bless him! Prayers, Tracy

sent some prayers your way....my brother has that sickness too, he has put a vidio up on you tube explaining how he is keeping it under control. he does ride a bike about 10 plus miles every day, he says that helps too. i'm sure he's also on some kinda meds too. i'm sure there is some kinda cure for it, but the big pharma is making to much money the bad way.

Guys, brother has taken the meds, he's had the operations on his brain. He is going to be confined to assisted living, living in a wheel chair. Not the best life. Our youngest brother, due to an accident, was confined to a wheel chair for 25 years.
