Parkinson’s is…
- Unwanted.
- Something I can’t escape from.
- Currently incurable.
- Degenerative.
- Relying on medication.
- A long term condition.
- A constant cycle of ups and downs.
- Struggling with everyday tasks.
- Constantly slowing me down.
- One of life’s challenges that I – and millions of others worldwide – have to face every day.
- No longer being able to play the piano.
- Always there.
- My reality.
- Having to ask for help.
- Learning to let go of how things used to be.
- Always teaching me new life lessons.
- The reason I started blogging.
- Only a part of me.
- Not going to stop me.
- Something we need to fight.
