I’m back!
It’s been a long time since I’ve been on the discussion site. But it’s time I reconnect. My husband has been in a long period of mid level stages. But he’s beginning to show more signs of decline. It’s funny, how I can so easily forget there’s anything wrong during these long lapses of decline. Then boom. It hits me square in the face. We’ve been fortunate to have had such a long run. And now reality is setting in. So back to connecting. Back to being encouraged. Back to knowing I’m not alone in this journey.

Welcome back, it's good to hear from you. Glad you had some stability while it lasted. I try to take each day, but not so successful at keeping my focus that way...

I understand that! It’s so easy for me to get caught up in the moment and forget to take care of myself.

Hi there...I'm new here, just wanted to share how awesome it feels to get out among regular folks these days for me. A trip to Trader Joes with nice pleasant folks does me wonders!
Take good care...❤️
