Three years. Three years I've lived with this now.
Paul said to me the other night (during our date night dinner) that I am doing amazingly well for someone 3 years into it.
I guess he's right. For the most part I am doing good. Doing better with this new med. It's still hard to accept that I'll never have the full function of my body ever again. However, I have learned to live with it and manage around it. I still sometimes get angry at it, but I remember all the good I have in my life.
So, three years...here's to many, many more!
Toodles!

About Me
- TheatreChick93
- Massachusetts, United States
- I am 41 years old. I have been married to my husband for 15 years. We have a son who was born in April 1996. We live in Central Massachusetts with our dog Maggie (a black lab we adopted from the animal rescue league) and our cat Sam (a stray that adopted us) I graduated from college with a BFA in Theatre in 1993 (hence the name) and for a few years pursued a career as an actress. Then life took over and I got married, had a baby and decided to get a "real" job. In November 2004, I was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's disease. In December 2004, I was hospitalized for surgery to remove an ectopic pregnancy. In December 2009, I was laid off from my job. In June 2010, my son was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at the age of 14. Stick around to see what happens next!
