[quote=Anonymous]I don't have any specific information. Just wanted to send hugs. No first hand experience with Parkinson's either but I was just reading Billy Connoly memoir "Made in Scotland", 
I love his works so I got the book. I was surprised to learn that he has Parkinson's. In the book he, in his typical calming and relaxing laid back voice tells the stories and among them is one how he is coping with the progress of the Parkinson's. I think the power of his testimony is in the fact that he let people like me who know nothing about the disease helps to understand the struggles and some specifics. It is very important to have awareness of those who suffer as there are so many people who suffer from this.
I think that it could help you to gain some perspective and possibly even emotional support from this super gentle soul. His audio version is the best because it is red by someone who sounds totally like him so you feel the relaxing and calming voice that brings some peace and light into your soul.  Here is the info from amazon but I am sure if you are interested you can get it anywhere really. The good thing about this page is that it lets  you listen to a sample of the audio so you can hear what I am talking about.
He is  75 years old and he is no longer touring due to the disease. So chances of seeing him are diminishing. This is a wonderful legacy that he is leaving for us.

Best wishes and hugs to you and your Dad.
