Monday I am going to a neuropathy seminar with free meal at Olive Garden. I have it in my feet but it is not bad enough to complain about - but why pass up a free meal and get some information. My daughter (68 July 4th) was going with me since she has the same thing, but early this week she got sick, worse, went to Dr., got meds, it is bad flu so she won't be going with me. My goodness, I have rattled on haven't I. Just a little about myself.
Catch y'all later.
]HEN, it sounds like you are doing OK. No I don't think this is a contest and I'm not in it to win it. Mom was 89 in 1998 when she passed but she had cancer or she may have lived longer. Her mother (my grandmother) had turned 100 before she passed away. but Dad was 61 when he passed away and his mom (my other grandmother) was in her 60's. His dad was killed in a mine accident and I dont think he was very old, but I never met him.
I still drive and I have a walker that I haven't had to use yet. I do get around alright but my back causes me not to walk very far at a time without having to sit down and rest a minute before going on. I do my own shopping and driving. I live alone but do fine. My friends and family help when I need them. I hope you get to go to the Olive Garden and hope your daughter gets over the flu soon. May God Bless you and her both. You will be in my prayers. Patty.
