The good news is~~~~~~

Post by barbaranoela »

I dicussed my forgetfullness with GP. also---(it isnt just going into a room and wondering what am I looking for)

GP. says----*age*---again with that word!!!! also all the meds. to help all other issues---which while helping those issues cause your brain to go *DUH*--and the favorite word-----STRESS!!!

So I called deb,saw lynn, called doug and said NO alzimers(spelling)--cus they each were getting concerned over my FORGETTING--& REPEATING

And I find my way home---so thats good!!! :footprint: or :driving:'ing

Go for CAT on Monday---go to ENT on Tuesday to check vocal cords and *node* on Thyroid--

Today I am not too happy a person---- :sad:

If I could :flyingdoveleft: --right now I would spread my wings and fly away--high above the clouds---feel the warm sunlight---and let all worries scatter any which way they fall--

Hey, Barbara, at least there IS some good news!!! If you (and not just your kids) were concerned about Alzheimers then it was REALLY good news.

Seems like as we *age* things start falling apart more quickly and seems like there are more *issues* every time we turn around, but at least there are things they can do now (medically) to help that weren't available years ago, and I think they usually *find things* a lot quicker now. I assume that is a good thing. :grin:

Hang in there............We love 'ya.

Love, Shirley

:butterfly67: Hi Barbara,

I'm glad you don't have to worry about alzheimer's right now....I'm sure that was stressful to think about...

I laugh at myself sometimes when I'm taking a shower, I'm so busy worrying/thinking about things that I can't remember if I shampood my hair or not...... I'll look at the wall for suds and If I don't see any I shampoo my hair again.....Stress can make you more forgetfull from what I've been told....ha! ha!

Have a great Friday!

love,
Mo

Thanks Shirley------
U always have the words put into the proper Xplanation---

I always said *mellowed like a fine glass of wine* (a friend of mine said NO word AGE---thats the phrase :lol: )
BUT, I guess if the cork and bottle isnt lying right then some *VINEGAR* can start to *AGE* the *mellowness* :clap:

:yikes: cant run away from it---so might as well *straighten up* and age right!!!
RIGHT???? :thumbsup:

I do luve to read your posts---- :bigbighug:

My kids had me ready for the *HOME* :knitting:
They are too funny----but makes me feel like a :star: for their caring--
When U look @ this I gather we did a good job raising our kids--

:grin: You are right, Barbara. It makes me feel kinda special when my kids start "mothering" me (long as it doesn't last too long).

Love, Shirley

Isn't that the truth what Mo said about the suds on the wall. I can start out thinking about what I want and before I get 15 feet from Mike I say....What was I going after Honey? :noevil: Barb....it aint just you...I hear that Age word every time I see a doctor. God Love Us all. Love Oma
May I be more compassionate and loving than yeterday*and be able to spot the idiots in advance
