I know it's been asked before but after the night I had l lastnight it bears repeating.
I want to be remembered for my sense of humor even in the worst of times.I went via ambulance to the ER lastnight, heart attack, my blood pressure crept silently up to 210/120 and then came the chest pains. They referred to it as a minor heart attack, but honey in my book there's no such thing as minor. But I still kept my sense of humor through it all, if you read my answer to Y's question about Smiles you'll see my point. Hugs to all, I'm thrilled to be here today! I'm home resting quietly today.

Mine would be:
1) Do treat others as you would like to be treated.
2) Do treat others with civility and respect.
3) Do not insult fellow members by using ethnic, racial, phobic, etc. remarks that disrupt the harmony of the group.

Recently my 93 year old grandmother was admitted into a home due to dementia and that she needs constant supervision. Before she was admitted she had lost most of her memory, not knowing names, dates, where she lived, what was on television, night from day etc...

Most of the day she just sat in the living room watching tv and eating snacks but sometimes she would get these memory spells. When she was in her 50s-80s she would always go to the church for Bingo and that stopped when the church discontinued it. So for about 10 years she never mentioned Bingo nights or remembered she even went. Out of the blue she would start screaming "Today's Friday, I have to get to Bingo. It's at 8pm!!" when it wasn't Friday or around the evening.

She would remember bits and pieces very rarely but most of the time she would have no clue what's going on.

Is this common among the elderly with dementia in having little pieces of memory suddenly come and go?

We did in the Gold Country Mother Lode area in N. Calif. It was called Jimtown or Jamestown. 1800s hotel. That was quite an experience. It is not even listed in the haunted hotels directory, but it should be. A charming small OLD hotel however.

The anciant brothel(at one time)was across the street, maybe that had something to do with it. Many fights and killings back in the good old days.

Farting with style takes practice,
Perfection takes time; it's a gift,
You've first got to learn all the basics,
Like pushing one out in a lift.

Those silent but violent are classics,
With friends it's a really good game,
Fart in a crowd at a party,
Then watch to see who gets the blame.

Now once your technique has been mastered,
You'll know what your bottom can do,
But ALWAYS remember - don't push too hard,
Because one day you might follow through !!!!

You shut the computer down at night, having answered all of the questions that you care to - get up the next morning and turn it on again to answer any that were posted during the night with your morning cup of coffee - click on a question, only to find that it has already been resolved but not moved to the resolved section. You don't even get a chance to answer it, so the people on the other side of the world haven't either. Sometimes, I have a really good answer already forming in my head and don't get the chance to post it, because the asker has only left it up for 4 to 8 hours.
My wish for the New Year is that everyone get along and that people leave their questions posted for 24 hours to give everyone a chance to answer

Every now and again, my husband and I are finding ourselves with having to lend money or are failing our kids out, despite us now being retired, and the kids are well in their 2Os, or is this the norm. these days. Is it the way we have brought them up, have we spoilt them literally???

We do get very frustrated about the whole situation of late, but worry about the grand children, if it were not for them, we would pull the plug - thats for sure. Emotional blackmail, is this what its all about?

I would say they were in dept to us, up to 6 thousand pounds.
But having spoken to several other parents, their debts are up in the 3O thousand pounds mark!?!?!?
