Dad's Health

Although I have suspected for some time that the tremors in my left hand could be the onset of Parkinson's Disease (PD), it was not until I was diagnosed on 26th September by the Neurologist at a clinic in the Horton Hospital that it became definite. I have been inspecting the PD downloads on my computer and am heartened by the news that I won't die yet. Old age could beat that!!
i am sorry that this news comes so soon after Julian's troubles. I am happy to read that Julian's medical troubles could be viral and that with proper medical advice and treatment, he will be cured.
I have not been forbidden to drive, but to advise the DPLA in Swansea and my motor insurance Co.
I have to keep my speed down within reason, so it will take a little longer to reach Nythfa.
The PD booklet advises that I do NOT keep this information to myself,but to tell everyone who may be affected. Hence this Blog. Don't worry too much c'est la vie. Dad
