Parkinsons & Pesticides

This looks like interesting information.

During the early 1970's my adoptive Father built our new family home. He had PD before he died.

Along with Mum and my older adoptive brothers (all are tradesmen)each of us in some way helped. Because I was the youngest my job was to mainly help Dad in whatever various tasks needed doing.

The block of land the home was built on however, was prone to termite activity.

So, the underside of the house was doused in a chemical that I am sure my parents were ignorant of.

Some years later, Dad and I concreted the ground there and lined the walls to make a usable space. I believe that this is when we were both exposed to the chemical pesticide.

It is interesting to note that my brothers - who were the biological children of my parents - do not at this stage exhibit any signs of PD - whereas I am 17yrs younger and like Dad before me suffer from PD.
