We

We have PD ..
We are a kindred spirit
We cope as best as we can against terrible odds.
We sometimes succeed sometimes we fail sadly,
But we never give up, or give into it.
We rely on each other. We lean on each other
We cry with each other. We dry each other’s tears.
    We love one another like,  no other love felt
We lift each other up. We compliment each other.
We share our joys. We share our misgivings.
We learn from each other. We care for each other.
We understand. We try our best to defy the odds,
Against this evil monster … PD.
We fight with everything we have.
We shall never give up our cause.
We shall never give into it.
We have PD
Together you and I,
whoever and wherever you are equals “WE”

The poem was written by a dear friend name Jim Evridge,
who has Parkinson’s disease and has DBS surgery. 
He and his wife Kathy live in New Jersey.
