Movement Disorders

I rarely share this...I suffer from a number of neurological movement disorders: Parkinson's disease, dyskensia and dystonia. They came to me early in my 30's and have alter my perspective immensely. I believe each day I will wake w/o them. If I don't take the medications, I suffer physically, psychologically, emotionally and in every other way. The conditions affect me every day and also affect my family. Unfortunately, my work, concentration and motivation are effected, but I never give up. I push and push.

Had a decent 4th. Friends came to our house on the shore. We took out our boat and hit the waves. We had a boat parade to celebrate Independence day for the USA. Only one boat was decorated; in island motif.

We ate, laugh and went to bed after the fireworks. Everyone slept in late.

Today, the 5th, is another sunny and beautiful day. I hear the kids playing on shore and in the water!

Life is good.
