Terrible way to end Parkinson's Awareness Month. http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID6/38398.shtml   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

jbug 16900 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 05-02-14, 11:42 AM (EST) 3. "RE: Bob Hoskins (71)" I'll jump up on my soapbox for a bit on this one. Pneumonia is one of the biggest concerns for all PD patients. Parkinsons by itself doesn't kill. Pneumonia, choking & strangling, falls because of poor balance and "freezing" and other related problems do. My DH & I participated in a PD research project this month by donating blood for a new research project. They needed blood from people who do not have neurological diseases as well so his doctor used both of us. I wear a bracelet every day "WHATEVER IT TAKES TO BEAT PARKINSON'S" . DH had surgery Wednesday a week ago to cut a muscle in his throat to allow food to move down past a sphincter in the esophagus. He had to stay over 2 nights. On Friday morning, he drank some broth and immediately got strangled. The doctor said swelling might have caused it. By Tuesday this week, he has been able to eat soft foods without getting strangled. He had another barium swallow test yesterday that showed the food & drink moving past the previously obstructed point. He will have to eat very slowly and swallow several times for every bite of food he takes. He won't be able to consume enough food by mouth to maintain, so he'll rely on the PEG for nutrition. But being able to eat a bit of food for pleasure will be wonderful. Parkinson's Disease brings daily challenges for the patient and for the caregiver. PD patients often don't feel comfortable around a lot of people because people do not understand what they see. If someone stops in front of you and just seems to stand there? Please don't get upset and tell them to move; they may have 'frozen' and are doing their best to get their brain to signal their feet to move. If you see a person drooling, please understand that he or she has no control over it and will most likely have a handkerchief or napkin to use. The voice may be low and difficult to hear; handwriting is very small and cramped. I ask that you be kind and teach others to be kind and understanding as well. And? if you have a few $$ to spare and want to donate to a worthy cause, Parkinson's Disease research is a great one. There is no cure for PD. At this time, only the symptoms can be treated. Thank you RTVW friends.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

PsychoKitty 712 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 05-08-14, 02:35 AM (EST) 6. "RE: Bob Hoskins (71)" Dear jbug, I am so terribly sorry that Parkinson's is part of your and your husband's journey. You sound like a beautiful team, and you are lucky to have each other! I had no idea Bob Hoskins had Parkinson's and was very surprised by his death. How very sad! He was a brilliant actor and seemed to be a great person. I wish you the very best, PsychoKitty   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

jbug 16900 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 05-08-14, 03:42 PM (EST) 8. "and on Monday?" DH was doing terrible at therapy; had another barium swallow test and aspirated during it. Followed with a chest x-ray and yes, he has aspiration pneumonia. His doctor started him on Levoquin Monday night but Tuesday evening he was having trouble breathing so we went to the ER where he was admitted and spent the night getting breathing treatments and IV antibiotics. Back home yesterday; me back at work today. He's felling ok. And if all the problems we deal with every day with PD isn't enough? I may lose my job. I know I have had to miss a lot in the last 2 yrs, but for the first 10 yrs I worked here, I never called in sick or missed even one day. If they are smart, they'll hire someone who I can train as a back up for me & who can do other work here as well.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Dear jbug, How terribly frightening that must have been for both of you. I am so sorry! I hope your DH is on the mend! And that your boss realizes what a treasure they have in you! And takes some of the pressure off . . .   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

jbug 16900 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 05-13-14, 04:35 PM (EST) 10. "RE: and on Monday?" I think he has kicked the pneumonia out. He wants to eat or drink something so bad! But he's afraid of getting pneumonia again. He has sipped a little juice; very carefully and successfully.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
