Dad Living With Parkinson's 

My old man was taken out by this but he was well into his 70s when he got diagnosed 💔❤ much love to you brother, you are an amazing Dad ❤❤❤

hearing other people's stories is so important. it's too easy to put parkinson's disease to the back of your mind after someone is diagnosed because in the early days it's easy to do so. My dad has early onset parkinson's and watching someone take every day as it comes is inspiring, but also heartbreaking when some of those days bring new symptoms. Much love to anyone watching this and empathising on either side, I want to be able to support my younger sister in understanding how our dad lives but that's something so difficult to tackle

He is so handsome. And I love the relationship that he has with his daughters, beautiful.

My grandfather wast diagnosed with a Parkinson at age 47,don’t give up! You have to be strong,first or all for yourself but also for your family I wishh you health

he got a family that loves him he got a funny personality with his daughters he an amazing dad 😀

this guy moves and speaks just like my dad did. My dad is to the point where he lives in a hospital and forgot about his son (me) and his wife. He has Parkinson's and dementia... I miss my dad so much

My grandmother was diagnosed with Parkinson's fairly early as well, she lived a long full life and I'm sure you will have one too!

My beautiful friend is 38 has PD She’s got 2 amazing young children. She never ceases to amaze me. I can learn a lot from her tenacity and love of life. Thank you for this video and I wish you and your family oodles of love 💕

I have cervical dystonia and I have botox injections every 3 months but unfortunately I couldn't have them recently due to swallowing problems . My neurologist suggested that I wait for at least 2 more months . The botox injexctions help to lessen my head tremors and neck pain . Im also a mother of 4 children my children are aged between 8 years old to 10 months old. I look after my children myself I understand how this father feels and I just want to say how I admire and look up to him . He is so brave going on camera and educating the world about Parkinson's dieseas well done x

Hes very very young to have this. Something is odd going on with early alzheimers and Parkinsons

Truly "living' with the disease. Brilliant documentary. Thank you. The more we know the more we can work with the disease.

This breaks your heart. He is so young with a young family. My sister has the same although has had dementia with her Parkinson's for about 3 to 4 years of the 5 years she has had her Parkinson's but she is now 75, and although it is so upsetting to see her in this state, she is now in a Care home. But to get this disease at this young age is so bl**dy unfair. My sister has the head and shoulder tremors too although that side of it can change from day to day.

watching this made teary my aunty and childhood neighbour suffered from Parkinsons desease hopefully they do find a cure soon thanks for letting me watch this

My dad had Parkinson’s. This video really hits home. Thank you for posting this.

My dad has Parkinson's and I really hope they find a cure for it someday

what a cute family, such an amazing Dad.

Strength through synergy; loving relationships are invaluable.

Your an amazing dad god bless you and your family I love how you let nothing stop you.

Thank you for sharing...love the poem!

I would like an interview with this family and an update to see how they're doing.

He defeats the beast disease with beauty. Thank you for this video.

my dad suffered from the same thing from when he was in his thirties or fourties (im pretty SURE i wasnt alive when he got it) until his death and he always made an amazing effort to spend time with me despite being bound to his wheelchair a lot of the time. im very lucky i had a talented and brilliant man as my father and these girls are too.

I wish him to have the same treatment as mMichael J.Fox to leave longer and better , such a beautiful family. I am so happy for him keeping his job , his collegues are very supportive. Strong personality. This father dauthers bond is something special

Thank you so very much. My husband is 48 and has yopd. Thank you for the glimpse into another love dealing with this at a young age and with children.

I've recently been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease..... i knew something was wrong two years ago but couldn't put my finger on it. At first i notice my balance was off, and my posture was slightly stooped and my body was stiffening. Last summer my left hand started to twitch. over the winter things started progressing.... increasing muscle aches, joint pain, stiffening and stooped posture, slurred and stuttered speech, and the twitch in my left hand became a tremor. A month ago after doing research i was able to connect to dots. Unfortunately my greatest fear became reality. I'm trying to process these four words that are changing my life forever..... "you have Parkinson's disease". God has one hell of a sense of humor. REPLY

better dad than half the men i know. I hope to God they find a cure for this hideous disease

I've recently began to have tremors. I'm 18 years old. And have noticed some symptoms of having Parkinson's. I recently have begun to have a little bit of unpredictable movements.

A great human case, full of dignity and tenderness.

you are amazing wow i love that you're a FANTASTIC father/worker/husband you are an inspiration i really loved this documentary again thank you

Thank you for this video.. it is very hard to experience Parkinson's, and have a parent be diagnosed with it. My father God bless him was diagnosed with PD about two years ago. I'm afraid my family is still not at the level of understanding we should be. It is very hard on him especially because he lives alone abroad.. I'd love to learn new ways to aid him. This was very informative. Thank you and I wish nothing but the best for your and your lovely family.

Wow that BDS is amazing! I've seen it change the life of someone with quite bad turrets (or how ever it's spelt lol). Amazing ❤

You are an inspiration!!

My hubby was diagnosed with PD a year ago 56 years old he is slow movement, Disturbed sleep, and restless legs and hands while resting (while resting in the afternoons and night time. he was my all and the symptoms were terrible, he was taking pramipexole (Sifrol), carbidopa/levodopa and Biperiden, 2 mg. he had to stop due to side effects and started physical therapy to strengthen muscles. we tried various therapies prescribed nothing was really working.

Sweet family. He is not so bad. I hope he becomes ok❤️🙏🏽

Such an awesome guy!

Any updates on Andy? What a beautiful family.

I hope that within his lifetime a real cure will be developed for this dreadful condition. I do like that he and his wife have moved to a less cluttered and more minimalist lifestyle so they can focus on what is really important. It is something that can benefit everyone. DBS is a great leap forward in at least treating the symptoms of this frightening illness especially when compared to the drugs, which while they do help, I am sure have many side effects

Part two is called "Andy McDowell switched on"

He amazing dad 😎

Is there an update. How did the surgery turn out?

Not sure if god exists, but if he does may he bless this channel and all these amazing, wonderful people in the videos.

I am using mucuna pruriens capsules and green tea capsules for my parkinsons.

We are Parkinson,s Warriors!!!

ah, man. I feel for this father. what an absolute horrible disease. god

My son was diagnosed in November 2017 at the age of just 29. To be honest he's not in a good way. Don't really know how to help him. He's drinking heavily and now admits to using cocaine. He thinks his life is over and no matter how much we talk I can't shake him from this idea. He's very anxious and struggles to do normal things. Don't really know where to turn. I will try and show him this video - to show him what's possible.

My uncle is sick with this disease, can anyone help us in the association?

should he be driving?

His dystonia looks very similar to huntington's chorea. Is this typical parkinson's dystonia? Do they test folks for HD or do other genetic scrrening tests to rule out Huntington's Disease when diagnosing Parkinson's Disease? And is parkinson's diseased passed down genetically? Can you have both Parkinson's and HD at same time?

Everytime i watch these videos i find it more hopeless. I dont want to just be happy to live or have a family. I want to do something thatll change the bloody world without a disease telling me what i can or cant do.

May Allah help him . Iam very sad to say that we are facing the same problem.may Allah help us ,pardon our sins,and not to test us ,we are not worthy of it.

Does anyone know the piece of piano music that starts at 11 MIN?

Research the carnivore Diet. The benefits of a carnivore diet or your cholesterol on the carnivore diet.....Just do it, there is so much info on yt about it. It is so healing. It is such dense nutrition. You know that you need cholesterol to rebuild those neurons, right? That's in meat, eggs, fish, butter, lard, olive oil, sardines, and drink only water or coffee and tee. Simple and so nutritionally dense, it's healing in a lot of ways.

Kratom helps.. don’t toss and wash.. brew it and sip lightly.

I know so little about Parkinson's. Is his case mild or severe?

I seen a video about how weed helps with this.

Im afraid to about his driving

How can a person drive with Parkinson's? and I turned 52 and I don't have it

Hi. Please, let us pray together. Dear God who art in heaven hallow be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever in Jesus Christ's name we pray amen.
