Major Update

A lot has happened in the past twelve days, most of it not good, but there is a "happy ending." I will keep this short for now, but I hope to spell it out more clearly soon. Lisa began to have more whiteouts and seizures without much of an advanced warning. I took her to the ER in Valdosta... Sign in to see full entry.

We spent most of the day on the SGMC (South Georgia Medical Center) campus. Lisa saw four different doctors and had a special MRI. I had hoped to be home by 4:30, but we walked in the door here at 5:20. Lisa walked into the bedroom and collapsed, and I think she is sleeping by now. It takes me about...

An Update, A Memory, And A Shout Out

I didn't intend to be away for this long, but that's life. I will try to do better. My posts here will be sporadic for a while. I haven't been reading anything here lately, but I was happy to see Sea_Gypsy making a comment on my post. I missed ya, dear lady! The 'shout out' goes to Amanda. She sent...

We just got back from Valdosta after seeing FIVE different doctors today. They believe Lisa has developed a rare form of dementia... the kind that caused Robin Williams's death... Lewy Body Dementia. Judy had this same disease, and I suggested they look at the possibility of Lisa having it as so... Sign in to see full entry.

We had some really heavy rain yesterday, but it brought a much-needed break from the temps that had been consistently over 96 degrees with nearly 90% humidity. After the lightning shows left, I began to do some writing. Because of the cooler temps during the day (76 to 80 most of the day), I was... Sign in to see full entry.

Last night was the first night in two weeks that we didn't have to have the air conditioner running all night. We've been setting the auto on/off setting at 82 degrees, so when the temp dropped into the low 70s at about 9PM, it shut off and didn't run again until this morning. We had a fan running...

I try not to worry about the future. You can't predict what's going to happen, but sometimes the things you didn't expect are the things you really wanted, after all. Maybe you should stop worrying about where you are going and just enjoy where you are. Sign in to see full entry.

The day is supposed to be another hot one, with temps pushing 100 again. Later this afternoon, a series of rain showers will begin that will be an on-and-off thing for the next several days. Ya take what comes, I guess. If you recall, we spent then weeks clearing out all of the "tangly-vines" that... Sign in to see full entry.

This is going to be a short post. Our power company is asking everyone to shut down any unnecessary electrical equipment as we head toward a high of 105 today with a "feels like" of over 115. We have already shut down everything except the small air conditioning unit in the bedroom. It is set at 84,... Sign in to see full entry.

We Lost A Family Member Last Night

We lost our nearly 23-year-old dog last night. As are all of our dogs, Hanna was a "rat terrier" type dog who was about ten inches tall at the shoulder, but she was the absolute ruler of dogdom in our home. She was obtained from a woman who bought her for $100 back as a pup in 2000 )I have the... Sign in to see full entry.
