Symptoms of Parkinson’s
Although the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are very subtle in the beginning, they get worse over time. As the disease progresses, your parent’s mobility and mental functioning will be affected.
Eventually, your loved one will experience:
- Frequent, recurring tremors
- Decline in mobility
- Balance issues
- Depression
- Sleeping disorders
- Lack of comprehension
Some seniors with advanced Parkinson’s develop dementia, which leads to frightening hallucinations.
As your loved one’s disease progresses, even the tasks they’ve performed over a thousand times will become a challenge. Since Parkinson’s affects mobility and balance, your loved one will be at risk of falling as well. However, with in-home Parkinson's care from Visiting Angels McKinney, your loved one will be able to continue living safely in the comfort of their home, despite their condition.
