Don't let the Parkinson's get to you.

You have been there my entire and you have inspired me my entire life. Nana, you played the Mom and Dad role to my Aunt , Uncle, and Mom. You didn't let anyone get in your way.

When you were diagnosed with cancer and then Parkinson's it was like a bomb went off in our family because nobody knew what was happening. You were the rock for so long and now we have to take over and keep us together like glue.When I was born you never thought you could love someone as much as you loved me.

The day I was born you didn't believe my mom, but it was completely true. I was in fact born in a car. Your Parkinson's has defiantly put a different outlook on how our family works because we never know how you are going to feel on any given day. So we have to chance it and hope for the best.

Since you moved to Rocky hill you are not a five-minute drive down the road if we want to come and visit. It is now a 30-minute car ride via the highway or the back roads. I am your first grand child and you have taught me so much over the years. You are my mom's life support and when you are gone I have no clue what she will do.

Before you were diagnosed you were always at my house and you helped my mom whenever she needed it. Nana thank you for being the best mom and dad to my mommy she is the best person because of you. I love you to the moon and back. Don't let the Parkinson's get to you.

Parkinson's is an awful thing that just happened to invade your life.You always try and have a positive outlook on life that will carry with me for the rest of my days.

Love your first Grandchild ,

Maggie

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
