When I was diagnosed with Parkinson's my wife wanted me enrolled in Tai Chi, yoga, and all sorts of other things that might slow the progress. I just decided to live in the moment, not let the disease control my life, and just let life run its course. As it turns out, I am happily very responsive to medication and six years later have essentially no visible symptoms.
