You encourage me and I so appreciate that.

You make me feel normal (PD normal, that is), and I thank you for that. Like you, I don't look like I have Parkinson's, as even my neurologist states, but I have it and feel it, everyday. <br /><br />I love life beyond belief, and I work as much as possible, though a 40-hour week is more so the norm now. I'm realistic about the future and what it MAY hold for me, so I'm planning on an early retirement - possibly 2012 - which will put me at 46 years young. : ) I want my work week (in retirement) to be focused around exercise, caring for my family, and simply living a wonderful life. <br /><br />Being a workaholic and consumed with professional achievement, I must admit I am very nervous and scared about the prospect of leaving my career. But I can no longer hold on to what was . . . I need to focus on what will be. And less stress will equal a better and healthier life. <br /><br />I have a great attitude, I believe in all things good, and courage is the core of my existence, but I do think it's okay to lose a little bit of who I was before PD came along. It's an evolution to me, and it's exciting. I like me more now than ever before.<br /><br />Oh yeah . . . and I'm the Tin Man, but my oil is a little blue pill! : )kjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08946113931067256579noreply@blogger.com
