Greetings Research 1,
I am new here as well. I was reading your post and I found it very interesting. Fortunately I don't have a loved one with Parkinsons, however I do have 2 very close and lifelong friends who for some reason, independent of each other, became m3th fiends in their 40's with success on both the professional and family fronts. It has been as difficult to watch as losing a parent. Both are addressing the problem, both have been in repeated rehab programs. I remember my friend telling me last summer that everything just seemed "flat and boring" when she was sober now. Both of my friends are parents and truly love their families deeply, but both struggle to stay clean long term.
I hope you find help for your loved ones Research 1, I would also be interested in any developments.
I can't think of a worse Hell than watching loved ones struggling and being unable to assist.
