There are many of us that have vitamins as a part of a daily routine, yet in my case, that alone has not worked. It may well be the case for tons of RLS suffers. I would also...

(((((((HUGS FOR RUBY))))))))

(((((((((HUGS FOR RUBY)))))))))) I know right where your at. This thought of being in this mist of this the rest of my LIFE. I sometimes wonder when my body will just give out?

Thanks for the ideas

Thanks Minou, Don't be scared to throw ideas out there. We all have to help each other out here. About the Sinemet, this drugs side effects scare me. I don't feel, for myself, that it would be the right one to take. I feel that way about ton's of medications. I relent when I have to and probably sho...

Honestly, I'm glad I could be there for him and his wonderful family. There are things that happen in life that only God knows why. Thanks for t...
