Yes, I know it's been a while since I last wrote, but life has been very busy. I have ET or Parkinson's (they aren't sure which) and I am trying to take care of my husband who has alzheimers among other things. Am I nuts? I must really think a lot of myself if I think that I can take care of myself, my husband, and a job, too. I'm 58 years old, for heaven's sake! What was I thinking? On Tuesday I go to the neurologist at Hershey Medical Center again. It's my 3 month appointment. Usually I get Botox shots in my neck to settle some of the shaking, but this time when he asks me if it's working I am going to have to tell him no. At least I don't think so. He has warned me not to bring my husband home from the nursing home, that it would be too much for me. But did I listen? NOOOOO. And in the past three months he has fallen several times. I now have to admit that I am NOT Superwoman. And I need help. But where do I look? Maybe the Neuro will have some answers for me. I hope so.
