Fighting Parkinson’s, and where it all began, part 48

Seven years ago, I began doing the Parkinson’s Recipe for Recovery®. Of course, back then it did not have a name…it was just what I was doing. At the same time, I began keeping a hand-written Parkinson’s Daily Journal. It is time to share my journal with all of you. Here is my November 14, 2009 journal entry, seven years ago today.

“11/14/09. Up at 4. Took Victoria to her clarinet lesson and brought Steven his bike. In the afternoon, I cut the grass.

It was cool out, but it still wore me out. However, the yard looks nice.

Sally, Victoria, and I watched 27 Dresses. It was a cute movie.”

So, here it was, the weekend. We were busy doing weekend things. As I have pointed out before, when participating in a busy family on the weekend, there was a big diversion from staring at my symptoms. I was more focused on participating in life with my family.

And, I did my best, fully accepting that my best was good enough. Your best is good enough as well…in your life and in your Parkinson’s recovery. Click here for a reminder of how your best is good enough.

You are worth it!!!

All my best,

Howard

Please note: I will be posting one post per day through the middle of November. If you subscribe to receive email notifications when I post new blog posts and you would prefer to not receive those daily email notifications, simply send me an email at howard@fightingparkinsonsdrugfree.com, and let me know that you do not wish to receive a daily email with a link to each post. I will remove you from the list through the middle of November and add you back on the list after the middle of November. However, I still would recommend you checking the blog on a regular basis as it will contain very useful information for understanding my journey and helping with your journey.
