People often ask: What is the most common cause of death in Parkinson’s patients?
<><>In rare cases, serious falls can be fatal.
<><>Pneumonia, particularly “aspiration pneumonia,” is the leading cause of death
<><>accounts for 70% of Parkinson’s deaths.

“Aspiration pneumonia” is when food, stomach acid, or saliva is inhaled into lungs.

A typical day for a Parkinson’s patient is slowness, rigidity, balance problems, falls, low volume of voice, difficulty being understood, bladder problems, bowel problems, and sometimes cognitive decline and paranoia.

You nailed it, Biden was a lot like this in the debate. Except for the "sometimes cognitive decline and paranoia". With him, it's every day, same for the Democrat party.
