Infirm Parents for Dummies.. ....... . . . . . .. . . :rolleyes::(

Em, I hear you. My parents are both 84, and the decline is noticeable, more so in my mother. Jacquie is also dealing with aging parents. Her mother has Alzheimer's Disease and can not be left alone anymore. It is hard watching those you love become less and less capable.

I heard something once which may be a fit in Sillyville for this:

May you live long enough to be a burden to your children.

Thanks for this, POeter. I needed it - - there are always those who have things tougher. My dad has never grappled with the Alzheimer's demon. .. . .this must be absolutely heart-wrenching, to lose a loved parent in such a way, as he/she slowly becomes a complete stranger. Hugs back to you and Jacquie. :wub:

Enuff sadness in Da Ville! Someone start talkin' about penii, er sumphin'. . . . . .. ..

Gaacck. I don't know what it is about pineapple, but I just can't get into it. It is more than just sweet--it is cloying.

For the life of me I cannot fathom why otherwise intelligent people would put pineapple on a pizza, along with ham, and actually eat the thing. :blink:

Give me bacon, mushrooms, green olives and green peppers. I'll take some gluten-free pepperoni if available, all on gluten-free crust. Lots of mozzarella and some tomato sauce, too. B):)

Good Morning, Psillies!

Hey! POeter, you had this when we had our pizza lunch together, methinks. . . .. :)

Certainly the mushrooms, as that brought about the discussion of their different life level and questionable value as human food. . . . ...

oh who invented work anyway??

want to stay home and lounge with Lyle in bed. He's claimed his spot, next to the open window where, if anything exciting happens he can open one bleary eye and say 'hey'.

actually this kinda describes me at work, so maybe going in isn't so bad.

Me phave, too--except swap out black olives fer the green. I also like pepperoni much better on pizza than sausage (Mark and I disagree on this). Never tried pineapple on pizza--can't fathom it wif tomato sauce :blink: <yuckphace>

I ran to the store (drove, really) ... planned to get there and back asap. Well, I got back here, and first couldn't get into the parking garage, and then my keypad wouldn't work on the building door. :angry:

I had to park the car, traipse around the freakin building to the front door, groceries in hand, praying it would open....and luckily one of the property managers was there showing an apartment er sumphin.

I need another shower <_<

Thanks for this, POeter. I needed it - - there are always those who have things tougher. My dad has never grappled with the Alzheimer's demon. .. . .this must be absolutely heart-wrenching, to lose a loved parent in such a way, as he/she slowly becomes a complete stranger. Hugs back to you and Jacquie. :wub:

This might sound a tad macabre, but I'm actually a bit jealous of you guys.

See, my dad was NOT an awesome guy. Not most of my life. He was angry, rather mean and abusive, and very difficult to live/work with. During the year he was sick, a great deal of that changed, and I got to have a year with my dad as my Daddy, as loving and kind and wonderful as I knew he always could be. I know exactly how evil his mother was (a woman with whom I will NOT associate), and how extroardinarily hard he worked to improve himself enough just to be the mean bastard I grew up with.

Part of the reason I grieved so hard when he died was that I didn't want to give up the 'new' & improved Daddy I had. So I find myself (uncharitably) jealous of those of you who've been able to live your whole lives with such special parents. I can only imagine how hard it must be to contemplate losing someone who's so deeply imbedded in everything in your life, who's so well loved. I sincerely hope he gets better.

And hey, so when did I become the traveling chef?!?!?! Who's gonna shell out for all that equipment, huh? Don't I get a vote in this?!?!?

Padt!!!!!!!! :blink: are you sure you're not living in Fresno in July??????????? <_<

It is unbelievably, ridivculously, egregiously HEINOUS, that kinda heat yer talkin' about. Trust me on this. :angry:

For four months every year here (or five), walking outside is just about the worst thing imaginable....a hot, scorching oven smacks you and nearly knocks you down every time you exit a building. :angry:

I hate living here :lol:

BUNNIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

OMG - I am a little in shock - you've written something taht is almost identical to my story!!! I had my dad for the last year of his life, only. My grieving was so incredibly complicated when he died. And about three months before he did go, he looked at me one day, tears in his eyes, adn said: "I finally found my daughter." *gulp* and I replied: "I finally found my daddy." We had dropped our lifelong weapons of defense, and in his prolonged illness, he softened so.

:blink:

Bunnie and Souczie--you both brought tears to me eyes. I sometimes think that this is how it might go with my mom and me. A lot of you know there are issues there--but I'd love for the walls to come down now that we're still both here but she just cares about how things look--not real things like feelings and loyalty. :( So complicated...but then, these things always are.....

Don't think it's ever gonna happen.....just wanted to commiserate with you two. I really understand what you're saying and I'm so sorry.

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight.  My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she suggested it.
    • Colleen H
      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you 
    • sleuth
      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc. 
    • Scott Adams
      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.
    • Me,Sue
      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.
