It is a bright sunny day and not too hot – after a thunder
and lightning storm the night before.
Since this is supposed to be at least a little about Parkinson’s and not
a weather report, I had better get down to business.
At present and recently there have been only two changes I
my symptoms. The first, and I think I
have mentioned it before, is the extreme tiredness I get at the end of the
day. It is frequently a factor if I have
been working hard during the day, but sometimes even when I haven’t been so
busy. I feel so exhausted that I can
hardly put one foot ahead of the other.
Lying down for an hour or so seems to revitalize me and I can feel
remarkably well after a short rest. The
second is equally interesting from a different perspective. One of my first and obvious symptoms of PD
was that my right had shook. Now it
hardly ever does. I am surprised that
the shaking has virtually stopped.
Another, but unrelated, situation has happened in connection
with my prostate cancer. I have been
attending the Cancer Clinic in Halifax
The deck is finally done.
The last item was a load of dirt to fill in behind the moved stone wall
and very fortunately I had help with that.
My grandson Steven, his wife Tanya and eleven week old Marshall are
visiting for a few days and both were more than willing to help move the top
soil. We also started to clean up a
rough corner at the back of the yard and will plant grass seed there sometime
soon.
A few more guests will be coming. Susanne and Jeff have bought a house not too far away in Dartmouth Isabelle
(and friend) can move in for university in September. Howard and his family will arrive in August
for a week, but will be staying at Heather’s place. It has been and will continue to be an
interesting summer.
