Had a Phone session with my T Richard and today has been the first time since February that I was able to report something positive !!! My husband is improving, He still is really physically weak and dealing with more cognitive issues than before he got the lung infection(s) He will have a long road to get back in better physical shape, he walks just to the pasture to let the dogs out, Less than a 2 min slow walk, he has to stop and catch his breath 5-6 mins before he turns to come back in..... Often he needs to get on his oxygen for 5-10 mins to really catch his breath, so physically he can't go take walks to build up strength that way. His COPD is severe. I have gotten his blood sugar numbers down into good levels. I am going to get a referal to a dietitian so I can get further help adjusting the food I make into diabetic friendly things. There are some very healthy foods like Avocado's .. I have tried and tried to like them but NO they belong in the trash next to Kale and we do not eat Salmon.. So I want some more help, My fingers have often googled myself into a confused corner with this site saying A the other saying B

I pray daily that his cognitive function will return to his Pre infection level, if not I will have to get him back in to see Neurologist sooner than our next appt and hope there is something we can do..

I called today to get my Lamictal restart.. Ill probably go out tomorrow to pick that up. Thus far not a single problem hoping back on 80mg Latuda and I did 100mg Doxepin last night,not even a hiccup as I predicted. I am not sedated at all. I didn't take Ambien last night and don't plan to take another until I go 4-5 days with little to no sleep...I need something that will work when push comes to shove. So only a couple very broken hours of sleep last night.. But that's okay.

Mister Summer needs to go the hell away.. Its legit 187 degrees outside today

Cool icy drinks for everyone
