I have a bad time with remembering if I did something or not, it's mostly
just my short-term memory that is really messed up. If I try to remember
something I usually can but all the things I don't try to remember I have a
horrible time recalling them

Yes, Danny...I have that at times too, especially with my medsI have to
really take note of the time or an hour or so later I'm wondering if I took
that med or not.

Hi John,
I don't keep track but I *think* you started posting about 6 mos ago. I know
it hasn't been over a yr. The reason I took notice was because you are from
Ohio.
My short term memory is shot. I believe
I can honestly say that I am very happy with my life. It certainly helped
that I was 51 when I broke my neck, because I already had a full life so I
did not have as many regrets that I had missed many opportunities. I think I
have more appreciation of each little thing that happens that I did

Unfortunately, many of us have such a set routine that the days blur together.
I have a terrible time with short term memory. I have to write down phone
numbers even if I am only crossing the room. I can remember students from 20
years ago but not yesterday. Pitiful.

I would think that a letter (a very good letter) by an occupational

when I go to look for a new chair myself.
I very highly doubt that the size of minivans have changed. Yes, it is very

It was quite easy to know when I got on this list because it was shortly
after I got on the Internet. In early 1995I did not even know a single
thing about the Internet. Then I signed up but ended up being in the
hospital for two weeks with my shunt surgeries. I remember thinking, lying

I think it sometime after 1993 as that was when I first got the Internet.

Myron,
Perhaps you could get a hoyer lift to help you with your wife's care. That is
what the girls do to get me up. Being a caregiver is a tuff job, I am sure you
get tired. We just don't realize how hard it can be at times. In the long run
your wife knows how hard it can be as the patient.
Hey Linda F. How come you didn't tell the world about you and Warrior going
out on NewYears Eve?
Warrior called me and said that her kneecaps are busted and her hams
strained. What did you guys do on New Years Eve?
Speaking of a hoyer for Warrior. She's going to need one now.

I don't know too much about penis implants other than being a surgical nurse
during the insertion during surgery. I do know they have come along way with
the improvement of implants. You also wanted to know about medication for a

Shepard Hospital, has a list of DMEs in your area, and then some. They may
also have a technology center there for you to try out some of the equipment
you are seeking.

Good question Dana. Also would this place be for individuals or family
members as well. How about aging seniors and developmental disabled. Would
this
place accept those in Atlanta only or the State of Georgia?
How about those from other states and their families? How about those

I live in Kansas Myron,. I doubt that I would move away from my family,
unless it was really a good place to live. My family doesn't do a lot for me
physically, but it's nice to have family around and I am on a fixed budget and
I get my care through self-directed care so I don't have money
