Family is best but same neighborhood separate house unless separate apt available

Family support is very important and helpful with Parkinson's. Family near you could be what you are needing.

Have you tried to find a local Parkinson's group near you? How supportive is your family likely to be? Families differ enormously. If you think your family would truly make time for you, then moving might work well for you. If not, then an assisted living facility might be a better option.

I want to thank you for such a well thought out piece of advice. Thank you for taking time and interest. Hugs.

We moved from our home in Hawaii about 6 years ago. We were deeply invested in Hawaii with friends and family as well as our community. South Carolina was where we had built our forever home for a multitude of years including that our new house was one floor not realizing just important that decision would be. Moving is scary ( especially when you add huge cultural differences) but it can also be a great adventure! Remember adventures are more fun if you plan well and are honest with yourself about your needs. Your needs should be written down to even make such a decision. It helps to visualize your choices and requirements. Friends are not lost. You may communicate differently but you don't loose them. You also can make new friends. This is your life and you get to choose what is best for you!
