Ageing

Posted on May 4, 2012 by Brandy | 0 Comments

Everyone gets old, but ageing can affect everyone differently. Some people are ready for it, whilst others are afraid of the changes that are happening. Ageing is a natural process and doesn’t need to be complicated. If you take some time to understand what is happening, and what you can do, you will find it much easier to enjoy your senior years and…

It’s a Rotten Pain Day…

Driving has really been a trigger for my bad days. I don’t drive that often anymore and when I do it is not all that far. But, over the last few days I did a lot of driving…then yesterday the storms rolled in to Dallas and my pain increased all fast and furious. Typing today to get work done is…

Flossing without the Pain

Posted on March 20, 2012 by Brandy | 1 Comments

It’s no secret that I have some major problems with my teeth. From the hyperemisis during 3 pregnancies and the constant vomiting caused by that massive tumor we so lovingly called Spike. My teeth are jacked! Falling a part. Flossing had become too painful and difficult. Floss would catch on the broken pieces where my teeth are chipping away….

I Used to Have Friends…

Posted on February 14, 2012 by Brandy | 8 Comments

Looking around facebook I see all sorts of old friends. Some that I thought were very good friends at one time. Some old friends I can’t even see any longer because I deleted and blocked them. Usually I am ok with the fact that some people no longer talk to me. I mean I can understand why they don’t I…

Posted on February 3, 2012 by Brandy | 2 Comments

You know…I’m really not that sure anymore. The answers to the questions that are asked of me have me confused and not understanding it myself. What is wrong with me is a question that people want answers to. Trust me, I want those answers as well. There is no quick fix for what is wrong with me. It’s a hard…

Walking Sucks…

Posted on January 15, 2012 by Brandy | 7 Comments

I’m having horrible pain issues in my hips and back again. My days are a struggle with walking. Yes, I can walk…but I sure don’t want to. I’m thinking that it’s been awhile since my last massage and maybe that is why the pain has gotten back to that horribly intense level again. The few massages I have had have…

Sickness, Pain, Aging and Medicare…

Posted on November 5, 2011 by Brandy | 13 Comments

I still do not have insurance. I can’t really apply for anything until I get a new neurologist. Since my Rhuematologist moved away I’m kind of in a bind. The new Rheumatologist tried to discredit everything my old one had accomplished with me. She even wanted to take away my meds. I’m not sure how much longer she will refill,…
