Reading about all these problems Jake and Marie are having is just so frustrating to me. Here in NJ/NY area, Sloan Kettering is on top of cancer care with many satellite centers available to patients. Besides hospital Hospice groups, there are several individual Hospice agencies for every need...

Joe, I think I'll just settle for a good old American Cup of coffee. I despised the coffee in Italy as it was stronger than I was.

I am so glad I don't live there anymore. I moved back across the river to my NJ when I retired. But, NJ isn't getting much better. We keep petitioning to remove that moronic governor who was elected for this state. As a former elected official, I am going pull out all my old contacts who are...

Speaking of capers, we use them a lot here in our cooking. I keep forgetting to ask for a pickle with my sandwiches too as I do love them. Years ago there were served automatically. Another pickled delicacy I cannot find anymore is lamb's tongue. They were delicious and when I got older...

It also left out the iconic Moonlight Serenade by Glen Miller. ;)

Well, another nasty rainy day ahead of us, while Europe roasts.

T'was a pretty busy Father's Day here to say the least. I just came inside from sitting on the porch watching the sun set nicely in the west. The longest day of the year is rarely missed by me. We sat out and chatted for awhile and now I am in and getting settled with a new book.

We never concerned ourselves with addiction for folks with Marie's and my daughter-in-law's issues. It was for those who just liked being stoned and demanding more and more. When placebos did not work, we knew we had an addiction problem on our hands, and it then became a different type of...

Well, since I was born at the height of the depression, this video and others like it resonated with me to a certain extent. Even we girls had to learn so much of these simple yet useful skills, plus more in some instances. Poke fun at it all if you will, but in the long run, if just a few...

I just finished my 5th book from the beginning of the month and started on the 6th yesterday. Our local library loves me. 😊

By most other narcotic standards, Hydrocodone is relatively mild. It takes huge amounts to really do anything other than take and edge off of pain, so, for something very serious in nature, it should not even be a drug of choice. My neighbor who has some sort of hip problem takes 60 mg. of...

For 1st time injection givers, it's that shaky, insecure feeling that air bubbles, and the like may be terrifying. That passes quickly. If you see a little bubble of air or 2, just taking the back of your fingernail and snapping the vial, will break it up. Once you practice, Jake, you will...

I didn't activate my pedometer today, but, I walked farther than I have in a long time. I did so the other morning while waiting for my son to pick me up to go to my pulmonologist. Today I exceeded that by walking all the way to the University just beyond where I live and back. The weather...

Mary, I really haven't researched this as yet, for I don't have the sleep apnea problem, but I just read an article (very brief) in one of my Johns Hopkins monthly reports, and it seems there is a real improvement over the old CPAP apparatus out now. It appears it is less cumbersome, easily...

I take Magnesium every day, especially for bone health among other things.
