My dad had Parkinson's and dementia. Towards the end it
was almost impossible to communicate with him. But prior to
his getting that bad, I would take him and my son on outings ....
to air shows, to the Colonial pro golf tournament, out to
dinner......all in his wheelchair. It's been just over two
years now since he passed, and I'm so glad we all did this
together. Fantastic memories to fall back on. So,
just encouraging you to get him out doing whatever he
likes......you'll certainly not regret it later.

been on here for well over a decade and rarely post, but this
one got to me. Parkinson's and Dementia here with my dad, though
recently the doctor said he was mistaken it was not Parkinson's,
but definitely dementia. We worked together for almost 20 years,
and I grew the business he started before taking it over He has had
epilepsy since I was in college, which doesn't help. Just two weeks
ago my mom and dad up and moved to Big Sky country, away from the
Great State of Texas. I know I have maybe a half dozen times to see
him in person before he might not recall it, and after being next
to him for 20 years it has done something to me that is
unexplainable. But I agree, memories and legacy is why we are here.
Best to enjoy what you have had and what you can have.
