Hello friends and family. &nbsp;Welcome to our CaringBridge website which we have started to update people on Mike. &nbsp;Mike has been &nbsp;living with Parkinson's for many years now and has been evaluated recently and diagnosed with end stage Parkinson's. &nbsp;He had several falls in the past month and has become more confused and agitated each day. &nbsp; His quality of life has diminished extraordinarily in the last week. &nbsp;Currently he is in hospice care at Walker Care Suites on York Ave in Edina. &nbsp;He has been surrounded by his family, Debbie, Jennifer, Christopher and Sandy for the past 4 days. &nbsp;His pain and delirium are being managed with medication most of the time. He responds to our voices when awake but does not open his eyes. &nbsp;We are told by the hospice team that we may have several days left with him or possibly even a little longer. &nbsp;There is a small chance that he will somehow come out of this and rally and be around for months, but we just don't know.
