Deanna Zychowski
Deanna worked 54 years for the State of Wisconsin Medical Examining Board, so she always had the best doctors and neurologists. She found she had parkinsons about 15 years ago. She was a very strong willed and independent lady who voiced her opinions and usually got her way. The last 3 years she needed full time care givers to assist her with ADL's. Although she was physically struggling the DPS surgery cut her daily pill amount by 85%.
She needed a walker but always was in good spirits and went to gamble and play bingo. I believe her and Michael J Fox had the same DPS surgeon in Milwaukee, small world.
RIP Mom
