My name is Verle (Ken),
I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s the summer of 2003. I guess that’s six years. When I was diagnosed I did not know anything about Parkinson’s.So had to do some research and find out what I had and how I would deal with it. After some reading up on it.I decided the best approach I could take was to first accept what had happen to me and then get on with my life.I started working out three days a week I feel that has kept any severe problems from taking me down.
I have no tremors as yet. My main problems are my balance, my speech and my hands don’t do small tasks very well such as hand writing and I have trouble typing or I guess now days people would day using a keyboard
Effects its had on my life:
I had to retire from my job as Director of Maintenance of a trucking company at 60 years old.I had worked for the company 29 years.It was tough to leave all my friends and fellow employee’s.
But when you can’t write legibly and I slurred my words as though I had been drinking. And the fact that I had balance problems so working around the truck and trailers and the shop were out of the question.
Effects on my family:
It has put a lot of stress on my wife.She worries about me falling all day while she is at work.
Also she has a hearing problem and she has a lot of trouble understanding me when I talking to her. From my low volume and my slurred speech. And when I am tired its much worse, so by the time she gets home form work. She is tired and so am I it makes it very hard for us to communicate. Everything bothers her much more than me so she is stressed out a lot of the time. She is always trying to help me much more than I need. I am finding out going to our support meeting that this a common thing. When the spouse is the care giver, they are over protective. As time goes on it gets better and better.
