A Day in the Life
A Day in my Life, I will wake up anywhere from 12:30 am until 4 or 5 am. I cannot go back to sleep because my mind is full, so much always going round and round. I will put the TV on, Nick at Nite, it has mindless TV and is enough to distract me […]
MetLife Stadium, Accessibility for Handicapped Individuals
First and foremost I will state that Met Life Stadium in Rutherford, NJ is handicap accessible. I’m sure because of ADA guidelines they have to be. The personnel there are very helpful. The following is my experience when going to see The Rolling Stones on May 23, 2024. In February I went online to Ticketmaster […]
Physical Therapy
Today was my first day back to Physical Therapy. I told her what had happened to me in the pool and how I can still feel the pain in my left hip. My mistake, I wore a casual sleeveless dress down to my kneess. She had asked me to wear loose clothes and I don’t […]
“Living on the Edge”
“I’m very healthy, I just have MS” I have quoted this for years. Even as a child, I was rarely sick. Now at 65, things have changed. I’ve been thinking about the different illnesses that have kept me down and they all have something in common. “Ice Pick Headaches,”. I have had these for years. […]
Follow-up Doctor Visit. – Monthly Weigh In, May

I have no diagnosis, pinched nerve, sprained muscle? I was told to finish the Prednisone and stop taking the Vicodin. He prescribed Meloxicam […]
Hilton Head II – Dining, Shopping and more Complications
Previously I mentioned my feet swelling. I brought 4 pairs of sneakers, one I wore on the drive down. Last minute I bought a pair of sandals just in case my feet swelled up some more. Guess what, they did and that’s all I was able to wear. Because of the severe pain I was […]
Hilton Head – Complications
The week is over. My sister in law Jan and husband Joey own a time share for Hilton and were nice enough to invite us and siblings to spend a week with them. We shared a room with his other sister and husband, which worked out well, (we had our own bedrooms and bathrooms). The […]
Countdown to Vacation
Tomorrow Pete’s brother and wife are coming to spend the night before heading down to Hilton Head. They have never been here and of course I want the house to look perfect, ok clean and neat. I’ve been doing a little every day. I just finished the vanity in the master bathroom and I can […]
Swollen Feet
My feet started swelling, (espescially the right one) around five years ago. It used to be when I was outside in the heat. Now they swell for no apparent reason. This year they started swelling in April, right now. My right foot and ankle are puffed up like a balloon and the feeling I have […]
