How can I make wearing neckties easier if I have Parkinson's disease?

If your Parkinson's disease makes tying a necktie difficult, try adjustable, pre-knotted zipper ties. Zipper ties are worn by putting the loop over the head, under the shirt collar, and then pulling downward to adjust the fit. They come in a variety of colors and are perfect for dressy occasions because they look neat and tidy—much harder to detect than clip-on ties.

If you have Parkinson’s disease, these tips can help make walking easier: Walking with someone can be better than using a walker. Hold onto the arm of someone else while walking, and say out loud together, “Left, right, left, right, left, right.” This might help you concentrate on your movements.

Your physical therapist can help determine when using a walker is safer. If you drag your foot, see an orthopedic specialist. Untreated, your foot dragging will become worse, and you will trip yourself.

Your orthopedist can make arrangements for you to get an ankle-foot orthotic (AFO) brace. If stumbling persists, see your neurologist. When you want to turn, walk into your turn.

Walk around in a semicircle with your feet apart; don’t pivot on one foot by crossing your leg. Try marking your floors with a grid of 18-inch squares of colored electrical tape. Some people with Parkinson’s disease find that it is easier to walk in the squares of tile flooring.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
