@2me Thanks for posting those uplifting words. I hope my experiences can help others and it's good to know somebody's getting something out of my posts. This is a long lonely road we're on, but there are a lot of us travelling together. That helps sometimes. Good luck with your own journey.
When I began menopause way back when, and noticed hair sprouting on my chin, and my lips retreating to heaven only knows where, I used to say that at least every day was an adventure. I never knew what tomorrow would bring. Talking about the changes with humor made them easier to accept. But, boy, what I hadn't known about adventures would fill a book. But, I still think humor is a good tool.
