I am a retired first grade teacher. I married my high school sweetheart and have been married 31 yrs. We have two daughters and a precious 3 yr. old granddaughter. We are expecting 2 more soon. My family is top priority in my life. I enjoy the beach, boating, bicycling, gardening and being a grandmother. It took me two years after diagnosis to accept that I have PD. PD is not "who" I am....it is just a daily challenge that I am learning to deal with.
