Hey OrlandoJack, James here. I am very grateful to you for your service to our country. A veteran myself, USANG-Indianapolis Indiana, I have a comment,sir. All reading these beautiful stories need to be reminded of one BIG thing, No Two are IDENTICAL, Similar-Yes, Identical-No. Many reading these(even I) would think from the Stories posted, Everyone Can Still Walk with Parkinson’s Disease Syndrome. My lower legs have been SO EXTREMELY AND AGGRESSIVELY ATTACKED, since my diagnosis in February of 2017, that as of 2018, I was in a Powerchair, which I am still today. The constant verbiage of Hearing hundreds of fellow Parky’s and Neurologist patients and physicians stating it is a “Slow/Progressive disease is absolutely NOT TRUE. I go on November 11th, how ironic-Veterans Day, to my Neurologist for an assessment, which I personally feel My level of Parkinson’s syndrome is at a 3 into a 4- level. But, it’s all GOOD. God has this, as He has My entire 68-years of Life. Hoping you continue with your Successful journey involved in Parkinson’s Awareness. You, definitely make this vet, very proud and honored.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍👍
