On top of Parkinson’s Disease and its
dopamine increasing medications I am presently got at by a urinary infection
and its antibiotics. The infection has been lingering for a week and has
induced lethargy and a reduction in posts to this blog.
I have just returned
from the nurse who took blood samples to send for testing. She has exams
tomorrow which are stressing her. She is due for retirement soon. She is
looking forward to having the pressure levels cut back. There are thoughts
about the University of the Third Age.
I have not engaged with formal education as
part of my retirement plan. I don’t really have a retirement plan although
there is a strong intention to record my progress with mindfulness. The problem
with that is the Parkinson’s. The disease and its medications make my
experiences abnormal and thus of limited value to other people. But there are grey areas. The PD may be
more or less readily felt in some areas than in others. It can, for example, be
discounted when I am dealing with neuroscience and evolutionary psychology.
