About Me
- Chris Irwin "We Never Know What Strength We Have Until Life Begins To Test Us"
- I am married to a wonderful man named Jeff and we have three beautiful daughters all who are grown and have two children of their own. About five years ago I suddenly felt ill and when I say suddenly that is exactly what I mean. How does one feel perfectly fine one day and the next your whole world is turned upside down. I went from doctor to doctor trying to find out the cause of my illness and eventually about a year and a half ago I finally got a diagnosis, not one I wanted but at least I had an answer. My diagnosis was Parkinsons Disease. My husband and I were in shock to say the least. We cried together and held each other. What was our future going to be like. we know we have a long road ahead of us and I am sure many obstacles but we have each other. We have the support of our Family and Friends to help us along the way. I am creating this blog to give insight to others about Parkinsons Disease and to let everyone know that we are all different and succumb to this disease at our own pace. No two people are alike that is why I named my Blog "Parkin at Your Own Pace". Feel free to follow along with me on my journey and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hope Costs you Nothing......
When you are diagnosed with a disease I believe their is always doubt in your mind. "Do I really have this" maybe the doctor is wrong....Sometimes I still have doubts about my diagnosis or maybe.... just maybe.... I have Hope. Hopefully a mistake was made..... Hopefully I do not have Parkinsons. Maybe I have something similar and eventually the doctors will realize they were mistaken. One can always Hope. Hope cost you nothing but gives you everything. Hope makes everyday a little better, a little brighter and makes your life a little easier.....One can always Hope....Hope in a miracle, Hope for a cure or maybe just Hope you can handle everything that comes your way....."HOPE" a very powerful four letter word.
