I hope you find the rest you deserve and need. My husband and I can't sleep in the same bed. I have been punched a few times in the darkness while in a sound sleep. Yes, every day is something different---a new challenge. There is no exact science to PD. While all this insanity has played out, we have been building our home on our own. We are on year 4 in the build. It is now up to me and my 17 year old son, but I am determined to get it done. May take me another year, but I hope to finish should the situation with PD worsen. I am also being checked for thyroid cancer this month. If I have it, it will be my 3rd fight against cancer. I know this sounds awful to most, but I am not sad. I am determined! Believe me, if I can fight the fight, you can too. Hang in there my friend.

Hi, @eojeda1 - you do sound like a real fighter, and you've already been through a lot with your health and your husband's.

My husband's aunt and uncle built their own home years ago in Minnesota lake country, and I have to say I'm extremely impressed by people who build their own homes.

I realize you are being checked for thyroid cancer and do not have a diagnosis. However, if you're interested in reading about it or chatting with others who have this diagnosis or have been tested for it, you might check out this Mayo Clinic Connect support group:

Keep fighting the fight! The doc thinks it is Parkinson’s plus syndrome oh well that’s why the meds aren’t working..
