Thanks, yea it's hard to watch. I shake real bad myself but mine is classified as essential tremors and fortunately we have settled on a couple of medications that are keeping my shakes to a minimum. Feeling good about that.

I hope it continues to help

We have a friend that seems to be going quickly through the stages of Parkinsons. He is still riding he motorcycle...Likely will go quickly that way

I think my mom lived about 8 yrs after diagnosis. Seems about that long with my brother now. I understand that he started having cussing fits now. Out of frustration probably.

Yeah, i have essential tremors too. They put me on a blood pressure med that helps it.

Started me out on that. Graduated to primidone and topiramate. Seizure meds.

The other day looked out my bedroom window and saw a baby in a nest in my huge tree. There was a big bird next to it, I assumed was a parent. The baby had it's mouth open waiting to be fed. Instead the big bird ate it. Then it flew off to another tree branch closer to my window and I saw it was a HAWK. I just got such an awful sick feeling from that I haven't even been able to mention it sooner.

I've found hawk kills before - found just a red beak and red feathers from a Cardinal, etc. But seeing it happen was awful. I guess it hasn't been finding any rabbits ,chipmonks, or mice etc..

I can understand why you felt sick would have wanted to open
my window gun in hand and shot the hawk feeding it other birds or for our dinner

They are opportunitic. If they find prey, its supper. An easy meal, baby birds are.

Still can make you stomach turn and anger flair

I figure it has probably cleaned out any other chicks that had been in the nest. I was just so mad because the tree has no leaves on it so easy to spot.
