@rosemarya , I have had a moderately tough year. Next month will be the 9th anniversary of my pancreas transplant. This year I have been blacking out and falling, very weak and shaky, hospitalized for a workup on syncope, many UTI's, and many medication changes. So life is slow in my house and I am grateful for my good caregiver husband. My mother will be 96 next month and her age is wearing on her, so it is taxing on me to provide the amount of time and comfort for her that I would like. Fortunately she is well taken care of in her nursing home. As always, I do what I can and stop when I can't. Happy Holidays to everyone, and Best Wishes for a Good New Year.
