Well, I have finally shared my diagnosis with my children (they are all adults)...they were super...asked intelligent questions and gave me lots of hugs and kisses...I'm glad that part is over. Now I will get back to living my life just as I did prior to diagnosis. I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful and supportive family.






Well bwilli, this is certainly a big day indeed. I'm so glad to hear it went well. My husband who was diagnosed a few months ago only recently accepted it himself and has just shared the news with his siblings. As with your kids, they were super. In the overall scheme of things I believe it has helped him immensely with his own private struggle and, as you say, enabled him to get back to living his normal pre-PD dx life. I get so sad when I read posts from others here saying their families are resentful or non-sympathetic.
I have a feeling you'll sleep much better tonight. Best of luck to you bwilli. Thanks for sharing.
