PAC - Parkinson Annual Campout

We had our campout at Big Elk Creek this year from August 15 - 18.  We had a very good turnout.  Everyone but Matthew and Ethan made it.  LaChele and her family were even able to come up and stay with us.  We had fun games, great food, and amazing company.  No mosquitoes, just flies and hornet and bees.  I'll take them any day over mosquitoes. 

Just hanging out.

It was pretty cold (to me, anyway) in the mornings.


My eyes started weeping out of the outside corners which I have since found out is a result of the taxotere drug. It can cause your tear ducts to narrow and cause the tearing.  Who would have thought a new side effect would show up this late in the game.  He said if it doesn't clear up after treatments I can have them use a wire thing to clear out the ducts down in to the nasal cavity and that should clear it up. 


My brother Bob seemed to be doing pretty well.  His back was hurting and apparently he was experiencing vertigo.  Luckily he found out the vertigo is not cancer related. If you would like to follow up on his progress his blog site is  http://parkinsonfamilyjourney.blogspot.com/
