Good Morning,
I was wondering if I could ask for some advice or guidance. I apologise for the length of the post in advance, but I did not know where else to seek guidance.
My boss was diagnosed with PD approximately 16 years ago.
He has now for a considerable number of years been complaining that his is the victim of harassment and stalking (he states he is being followed and see people doing this and that people are also vandalising property and breaking into his property and out to get him).
I have witnessed a some property damage to his house and car and even though he lives in London, i do consider 4 break-ins across 2 different properties he owns to be "somewhat unlucky".
His family would appear to me to have dismissed this out of hand and have blamed these feelings and incidents as made up and as result of a side effect of his PD medication. Indeed he feels he can no longer talk to them about this and bottles it up.
He has kept a diary of these incidents and myself and my colleague took time personal time with him to go to the police to log this so that if this is happening at least perhaps something can be done about it (his family refuse to speak to the police and when they have been called in the passed, immediately blame it on my bosses PD).
However, if I am being truthful, I do consider that what he is telling us is more likely to be the result of PD or the medication.
I can not of course understand the stresses and strains that something like PD places upon immediate carers (his wife) and his family. But myself and my colleague are unsure what his family are doing to assist him with this as it appears nothing has been done, though of course we are only privy to one side of the story.
We have raised the issue of it being medication related, but my boss dismisses this out of hand and has said that this is a misdiagnosis. He also said recently to me when I asked about a change of medication, that he is worried that they would pump him full of drugs which would make effectively dozey and not fit for purpose.
Again I am sorry for the length of the post and any help or guidance would be much appreciated.
Regards,
F
