My neurologist told me, PD will not kill you, just make you wished it did.

In the literal sense, yes, life is fatal. All living things will eventually die. This is because all living things are made up of cells, and cells have a limited lifespan.

However, there is more to life than just death. Life is also about living, and living can be a beautiful and rewarding experience. It is about experiencing the world, connecting with others, and making a difference in the lives of others. It is about finding meaning and purpose in life.

So, while life is fatal, it is also a gift. It is a gift that should be cherished and lived to the fullest.

Parkinson's disease is not a fatal disease. It is a neurological disorder that affects movement. People with Parkinson's disease may experience tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and impaired balance. The disease can also cause cognitive and mood changes.

While Parkinson's disease does not directly cause death, it can lead to complications that can shorten life expectancy.
