Dad Living With Parkinson's

[@keztukariri]

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 ❤❤❤

[@jwalt8019]

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

[@AttitudeLive]

Thanks for your kind words! Hope you enjoyed the episode Jaii!

[@tylerbradham9571]

@@AttitudeLive Any update on how him and his family are doing? Did he get the DBS surgery?? 🥺

[@layne3601]

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

[@paniharnoldzik9754]

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

[@mayaparveen4546]

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

[@aprillroberts]

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 💕

[@TheWildheartmuse]

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

[@rebeccamccready1135]

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

[@bradleybennett4219]

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

[@mollygee9950]

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!

[@AttitudeLive]

Thanks for watching Molly G!Hope you enjoyed our channel!

[@jujuoliver6959]

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.

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

[@kellybaker7399]

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.

[@Gesundheit888]

oh my gosh, everyone, please research the carnivore diet. They use it for weight loss, but it offers so much more. We need cholesterol in our body, it is the healing potion and we should eat foods that contain it. Meat, fish, butter, organ meats, lard, eggs.... everything from an animal. Research it! There is lots on yt.

[@traceypettijohn466]

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.

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 ❤

[@H4CK41D]

what a cute family, such an amazing Dad.

[@alexandrecosta2708]

A great human case, full of dignity and tenderness.

[@WECOOK1969]

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

[@autumnslatest9893]

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.

[@survivingfibromywhat2615]

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

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

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.

[@marilyntape508]

How are you going now in 2020😟🇦🇺

[@lawsontaylor7077]

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.

[@artparty222murphy9]

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

[@allanan22]

Olive Dog thankfully they do , its called cannabis

[@susanhowe163]

AMEN.

[@macbuff81]

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

[@nomam7358]

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

[@Bettinasisrg]

Part two is called "Andy McDowell switched on"

[@stsr11]

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.

[@0heck]

Have you looked at the videos using cbd/thc oil to treat the tremors?

[@choosyapplepickerproductio3594]

I am so sorry for your son. I hope that you are able to get him some treatment.

[@stsr11]

@@choosyapplepickerproductio3594 Surprising, things are a lot better. His Doctors stopped changing his meds(which turned out to be half the problem) and things settled down. Also, he has met a girl, had a son and things are a lot better. He can't do alcohol or anything else because of the meds. She's great, does not take any sh*t and loves him to bits. A lot of his depression was he thought he would never be able to have a normal life - which he is now having. He is bezotted with his new son and enjoying his new family and now has a focus for his life. Thanks for your kind comment...x

[@nischalganatra7921]

[@1houndgal]

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

[@cskid61]

We are Parkinson,s Warriors!!!

[@1houndgal]

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?

[@antondelacruz9362]

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.

[@edwardsulo7444]

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

[@zizo2614]

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

[@Gesundheit888]

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.

[@harislko71]

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.

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

[@angelpaw]

Brittany Ritter Parkinson's is a progressive disease. His case is severe in that it has progressed to the point where his symptoms are so disruptive.

[@logantyndall291]

I wouldn't say it's super severe yet. Eventually a person will be completely dependent. He can still function each day but yes it is starting to affect his daily tasks. He looks to be in the mid-stages maybe 2 or 3 but everyone is a little different.

[@PHlophe]

he is in mid stages imo. i think at this point he probably freezes for longer periods of time.

[@nomam7358]

Im afraid to about his driving

[@marialerenzo86]

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.
