Take this pain

Take this pain: Jake Banfield

Diagnosed: May 25, 2012 Video: Sep 30, 2023

It’s 4:42 in the morning

I’ve been up since 1

My toes on both of my feet

Are cramping so bad that they seem to send pulses up my legs

Each pulse cramping my muscles so bad it feels like they are being ripped apart.

My body aches

I try to walk it off

If I lay down it feels worse

I try to peddle it away on my exercise bike

Stick feet in the massage machine.

I hurt!!!

Drugs hopefully will kick in soon.

This is the other side of my life with Parkinson’s!

I HATE THIS DISEASE!!

Oh well every now and then it gets to me!

Time and the help from family and friends, this moment will fade.

Have fun and be a warrior!!!!
