Dealing With Mom's Parkinson's Disease

My mom has been struggling with Parkinson's Disease for many years now.

Fortunately, she is actually getting better.

The rest of my post gives you a couple of hints and tips that I have discovered to making her life a little easier.

When my knees point straight forward, my ankles cannot touch. I found that so surprising. I remember an army buddy of mine telling me that I had bow legs, but I did not believe him. I only thought to look up the information now. I guess that I was kind of wrong.

He was wrong too. According to the definitions, bow legs are when your knees cannot touch.

I was wrong in that I thought that my legs were straight and normal. It turns out that I probably have knock knees. Some photos and discussion might help to explain it.

I wonder bow legs and knock knees affect physical coordination. If it does, then that would explain a lot.

Please Be Careful With Our Garbage

People might wonder what the big deal is about releasing helium balloons into the sky. After all, it is such an emotional thing to do in memory of dead people.
