I hope your maintenance guy seeks treatment. My cousin Charlotte was a school teacher who died seven years after being diagnosed with dementia. She had an amazing memory, slowly clouded by pockets of forgetfulness until it became worse. It seems like Alzheimer's and dementia are becoming more prevalent once again. It is scary, but there are early signs to warn us so we can seek treatment and medication to slow it down. Sudden hearing loss is one of the signs. My cousin's dementia started with hearing loss. She also had difficulty completing familiar daily tasks and mood changes that were brought on for no apparent reason, mainly due to frustration from memory lapses. Eye-rolling smile

Good Afternoon

Kabu, I hope your back starts feeling better soon. It's a sunny day here, and everything looks so green after yesterday's rain.  We are expecting rain again tomorrow.  I will be so glad after my surgery on Wednesday.  I will be able to see clearly again.

Kabu......

I first learned about dementia and Alzheimer's disease when my Dad was the age I am.  It gradually took him away from us long before he died.

There are so many ads online and on TV about dementia - no wonder we all think we're failing to thrive. I hope your friend feels better soon and is able to stop worrying about all that - the worry will just make it all worse. I hope your brace is making your back feel strong again. You need to be able to dance in the rain.
