I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
Oh gosh! I hope that your aunt feels better soon.
She stays busy! She deserves to rest for a bit.
(((HUGS)))
Rejoicing with you and your family at this wonderful report!
Alva the biggest issue with the pcr test is that they can up the cycles to get the result they want. There are no regulations between labs.
That’s wonderful! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Wishing you the very best!
Barb, great news!
Barb - Happy news!
Pam - Church activities, you say. Inquiring minds want to know!
LOL 😆, your aunt broke several bones doing “church” activities! Sounds like a wild church!
I have had friends say to me that we (Catholics) get our aerobic exercise in with all of our ‘sit, kneel and standing’ during Mass! Hahaha 🤣.
No broken bones but one time we did end up in the emergency room after church. I accidentally put the kneeler down too soon and our entire pew of people knelt on it, only to discover that we were kneeling on top of my oldest daughter’s foot. Ouch!
My daughter screamed during the most solemn part of the Mass, communion and off to the ER we went! No broken bones though. I do think my daughter watched carefully where she placed her feet afterwards!
I think some of those tests are awful and always did. I used to, when I was an RN, hear the neurologists going through some of these, like the last three presidents. I mean I actually have to THINK. And spell Forum backwards. It gets easier if you practice, visualize the word and do it, but I never could do stuff like that without practice.
I certainly don’t feel as if testing is becoming a nightmare. Why would you view testing as a “nightmare?”
I am glad that you haven’t caught Covid. Many people in my family have had it several times, several friends as well.
So far, knock on wood, I have escaped it. I’m like you as far as keeping up to date with getting vaxed and taking precautions.
Yay! Yes, it is amazing! Very happy for you and your husband.
I am sure that whatever is happening to my dH, it definitely comes and goes.
I do not have a diagnosis for that, but have lots of hopes.
We had a follow-up with DH's neurologist today. In July, DH had neuropsych testing--18 months after having the first neuropsych eval which resulted in a Dx of MCI.
When DH came home from the psych testing 6 weeks ago, he told me "I did better this time." I asked why and he said part of it was familiarity the tasks (not the actual questions, just the general outline of what they were going to do--he has bad anxiety) and better rapport with this psychologist (the old one retired).
The neurologist looked at the report and and said "you did better this time.". DH whoopped and I asked, does he still qualify for a Dx of Mild Cognitive Impairment?
"Nope".
Wow. Is that amazing or what?!?!?!
Everyone celebrate!
Funnier still is that their second summer vacation, to New Orleans, they flew with a friend and husband. Son in law came back with SECOND case of covid, and the couple with them both got it. Again, all did relatively well.
Interesting article out of some recent tests reported in This Week magazine current issue is that studies are showing even those with no long covid symptoms are seeming with recent testing to be more prone to strokes, clotting disorders, et al. I am sure the deniers are going crazy behind THAT one; I can hear them now, hee hee.
I had my 6th shot before my last trip to my daughter for a month and will say I was less careful in general than in past. More contact with family coming and going and friends. So far still escaping it, but think that can't last forever. Just glad it is so weakened, and wondering when the next one will be coming. So thankful we have never faced down ebola, which is so much more easily spread. Hope we never do. Much uglier way to go for certain.
