Keeping Comfortable with My pd
By: Joe van Koeverden
Acceptance is the key
to be comfortable with my pd.
As long as I define this situation
as unacceptable to me,
I will not find peace of mind
or quality of life.
Until I accept pd as
an irrevocable part
of my new reality,
it may be impossible to see
or attract the many resources
available for medical treatment
of the symptoms to maintain
physical fitness and mobility.
I need to focus on changes
needed in things I can control,
to move forward and maintain
a quality of life for myself,
family, and friends who may be
impacted by my response to pd.
