About butch99

I was always a tough kid. I never backed away from anybody or anything as kid or as a USMC "Grunt" in Vietnam. When I was diagnosed with PD I just knew my life was over. All I could think was, What am I going to do? How am I going to take care of my family from a wheel chair? Between my Dr's and my wife, I have realized, my life is not over. Unless! I just sit down and give up. Sure, I've got PD but I'm dealing with it day to day for as long as I can. An elderly man once told me the secret to "Living A Long Life". He said. Boy. Just Keep Moving and they won't throw dirt in your face! I'm Movin
