As parents and loved ones grow older, most people are prepared to see some changes, but these changes can still come as a surprise and a challenge.
Parkinson's Disease is a degenerative nervous system disorder that impairs movement and cognitive function, making everyday life more difficult. The symptoms often show up gradually, worsening with time.
Common characteristics include physical tremors, such as trembling hands, slower and more difficult movement, difficulties balancing, problems with speech and stiff, rigid muscles.
Many Parkinson's patients will have difficulty performing unconscious gestures, such as blinking or gesturing. Parkinson's most commonly manifests in people over the age of 50, but sometimes early-onset Parkinson's can affect younger people as well.
