You know when you're just sitting there collecting your thoughts and suddenly a bright green 3 legged cow full of milk with its head on back to front, whistling auld lang syne out of key, swans past on a skateboard, gives you a friendly wave shouting move or something ? Doesn't happen every day. Does anyone else get this ?

This lively thread started with a playful question about hallucinations and quickly became a warm, humorous gathering where members with Parkinson's shared their own experiences seeing things that aren't there, from insects and familiar faces to green cows on skateboards. Several members described seeing deceased loved ones, pets, or strangers in their homes, with many finding comfort or even joy in these moments, while others noted that medications may play a role and encouraged speaking with doctors. A recurring theme was the healing power of laughter, with the community embracing humor as a way to cope with the real challenges of Parkinson's disease.

ADHD gets a bad wrap. They’re some of the brightest children I’ve ever met. My youngest grandson has it, and he’s downright brilliant.

After reading all this stuff and how miserable it makes my new friends, I have decided to cancel my subscription to PD. This disease can take a hike!! I mean come on, its just rude. Makin us all suffer
I know we all meet our Maker but for real??! What a mess!
I am going to look into a different disease, one that forces me to look younger and maybe a trimmer me 🤔 nah I look good already, whatcha got that makes me money...nah can't take that with me. Hmmm. I got nuthin.
Screw it. I could get hit by a bus tomorrow. I guess I'll run out the clock and and do everything I can....today was organizing bandaids 😁 I'll laugh and cry or laugh some more. I will fight as hard as I can. I will also bitch as loud as I can. I will love more, organize more and find a way to be happy more and count my blessings more.
PARKINSON'S sucks for sure but a lot of stuff does. Fortunately we have each other to talk to ( or talk about 🤭) . We need a place to VENT and a place to laugh. We need to teach and share or ya think you're a weirdo, I mean really how many people take a ceramic squirrel to the head from a kneeling position ? We need people who get us....or who got us 😆
