Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Very sorry to hear that because Parkinson disease is very bad prognostic. The cure is not possible at least being with that is you all have to know.

I have seen many patient attendees who have taken care of their parents but it needs really a lot of patience even more than us to care for a patient.

I know it gets difficult for you all to care but I tell you please change all your minds and try to be patient for everything.

Whatever happens, let it happen and you shouldn't take anything to mind at all. Try meditation, yoga, exercises, breathing exercises, chanting mantras, praying God, etcetera as all this would help you out solve your problems.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
