Hi

I was diagnosed 15 years ago when I was 36.  At that time i had a husband  and three children living at home.  looking back to that time now I realise that when i was diagnosed was when my ex stopped wanting to be my life partner.  As the years went on both him and my youngest child wanted less and less to do with me.  I went through a horrendous divorce which took 3 years because he kept delaying it. .   It caused me so much stress tha I have had pneumonia three times this year.  He told my 3 youngest children that I had had affairs (he did, I didn't , I loved him ) he has also told them that  I have taken all his money and they believed him.  Now only my eldest child (Not his) will speak to me.  I feel very alone and frightened for the future.  i have tried to contact the other 3 children who are aged 29, 25 and 19 lots of times but they refuse to listen to anything I say.  My eldest daughter tried to talk to them and they won't listen.  Life is really hard at the momentand probably  will be for a long time yet.

Sorry usually I try to stay happy but it's difficult when you have no contact with your children.

    I feel your  sadness about the havoc happened to you against your family , but the crucial one is to be passion person ,one day your children will come to you when they realize what the truth means . keep that to attract your children not tried that because mother is every thing and you can not abonden her every thing happened , maintain your health because if you lose your health may be you face risk condition , curb your stability and no more thinking it accelarates stress and depression to emerge again also parkinson to develop if you have or already diagnosed . thanks I wish you to re back your family

    It all comes out in the wash...

    but that can take years. Just be ready to forgive your kids for believing their dad when they do realise . Arms wide open. 

    Dont push them away.

    actions speak louder than words and how you cope and conduct yourself will affect how you are percieved. 

    Get on with your life , shut a door on this mess and concentrate on the precious years you have . Get involved in charities volunteering, or hobbies join clubs go to college or do courses  make a list of what you wanted to do before you married and do it. Who were you before you married find her again . And remember be ready to welcome your kids back when it dawns on them .... 

    Parkinsons doesn't stop you being you  . You will need to adapt how you do things but you can still do them smile
