Pleased to Meet You!

I started this blog in early 2020 shortly after my diagnosis of adult onset Parkinson's Disease. If you haven't read my original story, please take some time to read this first post:

Although I've been sharing my personal journey, Parkinson's Disease (PD) affects more than me. It impacts my family and especially my wife, Doreen. She is with me on this journey and helps me keep track of medications, journal symptoms, and maintain a positive attitude with encouragement and support for everything I do to slow the disease's progression. Recently, she shared her desire to be more active as a voice so people can hear from the care giver and not just the person receiving care. We'll share more details later, but in the meantime I realized we lacked a social media presence. My existing channels are all technology-focused, and I want a space to focus more on PD and to welcome Doreen's thoughts and input. So, we created some new channels just for this journey!


YouTube


We plan to produce more video content, so it just made sense to create a dedicated channel. I made a playlist with some existing videos and migrated a few videos over.

We don't have subscribers yet, so I can't configure a "vanity URL," but you can access the channel with this link:



Just click the link then hit the subscribe button to show your support and to receive notifications when we post new content. I uploaded my first new video today, a short mash-up of some pull-ups that I did during training.


Instagram


Doreen and I created an Instagram account to reflect the journey from both of our perspectives. We'll add her content as it becomes available. She came up with the clever name of "You, me, and PD" and fortunately it was available!

You, me, and PD!

Here's the link so you can start following:



Don't worry: we will post pictures of hikes and gatherings, food and other topics. It's not just for workout updates!


Twitter


YouTube is expression with video and Instagram with visual media, but what about sharing thoughts and having discussions? Fortunately, our account was available on Twitter too.

We would both love it if you could follow us at @You_Me_And_PD. Please say, "Hello" and share your stories, thoughts, or ask any questions you have. Doreen and I will both be available to answer. We're excited to have a special way to connect and look forward to saying, "Pleased to meet you" online.


It's a humble start but every journey starts with the first step. We hope you'll be part of our support team as we embark on a trip to the unknown. We look forward to the possibilities!


See you online,


Doreen and

Jeremy Likness

Good Morning!! My name is Justin Simporios from Canada. My daughter was unable to walk for several months after an accident that required her to have surgery. Because I haven't won the Lotto I've been playing for so long, I haven't been able to pay for the surgery. A friend online recommended Lord Meduza to me and he deserves a really, really big THANK YOU. This man chose to help me with a lottery spell and he gave me the precise numbers to play the Canada Lotto Max Lottery. After two weeks, I was proclaimed the winner of $80 MILLION DOLLARS. Now, my daughter will be able to walk once more after so much time as her surgery is now…

I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago. For over two years, I relied on prescription medications and therapies, but unfortunately, the symptoms continued to worsen. My mobility declined, tremors increased, and I experienced growing fatigue and discomfort that affected my daily life. Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try an herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My energy improved, the discomfort eased, and I felt stronger and more capable in my daily life. Incredibly, I also regained much of my stamina, balance, and confidence. It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more…

  I suffered from Parkinson’s disease for 7 painful years. The symptoms were debilitating, and I had almost given up hope until I discovered EarthCure Herbal Clinic. After just a few months of using their natural treatment, all my symptoms were completely reversed. My neurologist, with over 40 years of experience, called it a miracle and said he’d never seen anything like it. I strongly recommend EarthCureHerbalClinic.com to anyone struggling with Parkinson’s or other chronic illnesses. They gave me my life back.

If not, the black exterior alone provides quite a link contrast. Add the bright pink details, and it will be hard to miss this Las Vegas-inspired timepiece. The aesthetic is a simple "yes!" or "not for me." There link is hardly anything link in between.

But a stainless steel Vacheron 4072 is on another level. Monaco Legend says only about link 250 steel examples were link made, which helps to explain the $60,000-120,000 estimate here. The case looks sharp and the two-tone dial is in good, original condition – just a touch of aging towards the edge of the dial, not uncommon for these watches because link the cases weren't waterproof.
