WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR MARCH 2022

Last night I sent a message to a young woman on LinkedIn. She had the same name as the youngest of my old lover's children. Yes, it was her!
He is 82 and has had Parkinsons for 10 years and is recently diagnosed with dementia. She lives with him.
I had a little weep. I have been wondering what had happened to him for years now and have tried various avenues.
The daughter told me she used to read my children’s books when she was a child. Apparently he gave a big smile when she told him I had been in touch.
I'm very sad for him, but relieved to be able to fill in the last chapter of our story.

HOME!

Now take it easy and let yourself recover!



And don't do what I did! I have a similar scar although mine is from my belly button all the way down. When they let me out of hospital, I wanted to go to the library to exchange some books. It was a cold and icy December day in Canada and when I stepped out of the library to get into the car waiting for me right outside the door, I slipped, fell, and slid right underneath the car!! Ouch!!! About 10 days later, we took the bus to Winnipeg - about a 30 hour journey. And again, I was coming down the steps of the bus at some stop in the middle of nowhere, and slipped, and fell ... and ripped my stitches. One of my first stops in Winnipeg was the Emergency department of the closest hospital. Don't do that!!

HOLY FARTS GIRL!! I’m in the sunny central California part of the state so no icy conditions here. I will b taking it a lot slower than what I am used to

Lisa ... check your inbox!

Pip ... glad you're home ... now take it easy!

Katla ... so very sorry your husband is not well ... always difficult to watch those we love suffer.

Suss ... Welcome! You know, whenever someone tells me it's impossible, the hair goes up on the back of my neck and I think "says who??" Bravo to you for wanting to get healthier. Now prove that doctor wrong.

This is a "quiet" week ... not traveling to my parents until Sunday when we take my wheelchair bound dad to a dermatology appointment on Monday. Needs MOHs on a spot in his ear. Long story where doctor was unwilling to further treat my dad because he couldn't transfer himself to the exam table. My husband and adult son are going to take care of this. If it weren't for the fact that my dad likes this doctor, I would have found someone else for him. I'm still miffed at their attitude though.

Continuing with physical therapy this week, but probably only for another month or so. The broken leg is well healed, now really dealing with the pre-existing arthritic knees.

Debbie--Happy birthday. being 60 isn't so bad.

Machka--Happy Birthday.

Pip--Glad you are home, now remember not to overdo and let Kirby and Yogi take care of you.

Heather--Glad you found your friend and got closer.

Beth--I don't understand if it is his ear, why they couldn't take care of it while he was in the wheelchair. Some doctors just piss me off.

Doctor's nurse called me yesterday with the results of my bond density test. Said I have petiti osteoporosis. So wants me to take os-cal with vitamin D twice a day, drink Vitamin D milk ( which should be interesting as don't drink milk.) And do weight baring exercise 5 days a week.

Have meetings all afternoon.
