About Me
I am a 44 year old mother of a beautiful 4yr old girl and wife to a caring husband. I live in sunny South Africa on the Eastern Cape coast. We have the most stunning beaches and spend a lot of time on them. I enjoy excersising especially cycling, walking and swimming. My grandmother, and mother were diagnosed with pd. But when my symptoms were also diagnosed as probable pd very recently, i was shocked. In fact i am still having difficulty in getting my head around it. I am fortunate i have a fantastically supportive family and group of girlfriends who have been friends for many years
