Primary Illness: 
Parkinson's Disease

my husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's and he is 71.  He is on senement 3 x a day. And xanax and has swings up and down.  Nausea is constant, mood swings too, had some memory issues, that were short term. Like staring at coffee pot and not knowing how to use, cell phone forgetting how too use, and something we talked about 30 minutes before, I keep calm, as I find he cries if I try to explai. Too much. I love him and will take care of him always so I need advise.  His Dr. is good but he is running test and helping me with him, so he will let me take care of him.  I am afraid to make the bigger choices like when do I stop him from driving. When do I take away things that are dangerous like he collects guns, they are locked in safes but when to I move them out of house.  He will be so upset when these happen, give me some advise please!!!!  My name is Grace and I'm 65.

 

Wish List: 
Communication with others who have advise
