Episode 3: The Finances aka Kids of Social Security
In some ways, Parkinson's changed our family's economic class overnight, in other ways, it's been gradual. We were as fortunate as we were...not. Aye, PD tends to impact every vein of life; we all handle/d the financial effects differently. I.e., as children of a parent on disability, Mags received a small amount of money (a pittance, some might say) before she turned 18.
