    Maybe it won't be Parkinson's. Good luck on the tests.

    Thank You to all who have sent such good wishes.
    Tahnk You especially katladyd in telling me about your brother in law who is actually doing better now. 'I have a mobile walker with four wheels and a basket.
    Of course the basket every morning is occupied by Scrapster , for some reason he lovesit.
    This walker does make things easier as I do not have to carry heavy cases of Cat Food!!!

    And Freedom we have 7 Found Cats plus Two I have TNRED.
    They are staying close to home because of the ice and snow , I pray that they will stay in our double back yard.
    Thank You again for all your prayers and good wishes I cannot tell you all how much I appreciate them.

    Gary, her husband always had some tremors, but was fine with his mobility. He has a neurological disorder similar to Parkinsons, only his onset was in childhood sometime (I don't know the entire story). Anyway, Parkinson's and other disorders like it are progressive, they get worse over time. The meds help with the symptoms and slow the progression down quite a bit. When he was in his late 30s, he slipped and fell on some ice on the sidewalk and broke his hip. So now, between his disorder and his hip, he has a pronounced limp and a cane. But he is around your age and still doesn't need a walker. I hope your doctor can help restore much of your mobility but allow you to keep the walker (for the cat food hauls!)
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    Prayers on the way for you from me too, Gary. Not being able to take care of my cat kids is the one big fear I have so I know how you feel. The worse my arthritis gets and the less mobile I am the more I worry about them.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!
