Whoa! Now you stop right now thinking that anyone here is going to take offense to your memory issues, whether you repeat yourself or whatever. I have learned a lot about those people who post here overall and so I am pretty confident not one soul here feels anything but love and compassion for you and your situation.So you just repeat away. And even beyond that, I have been profoundly inspired by you as a person, "sunny disposition" and all and by knowing what you are facing each day. What gets me the most is knowing that these health issues you, my wife and others face are not just challenges for "a while" but rather EVERY DAY, WEEK, MONTH AND YEAR! Just the shear constancy of it, the waking up each day and facing it AGAIN, seemingly forever. As you say, this life is temporary, and thank the lord for that! We must live this life that He has given us, and by doing it as well as you do, Sunny, you honor Him and are an inspiration to the rest of us.
As to whether to try to take your quest for healing beyond what you currently do by seeking further help from new and different teams and specialists, is undoubtedly for you to decide. Linda and I developed a deeply skeptical attitude long ago about pursuing further worldly answers to intractable problems, after the first, second and third go-round didn't seem to do it. We believe there is a time, after a certain amount of strenuous effort has been made, for acceptance. I know you pray, and, as Jim said, that is where you can find the answers for YOU. I just hope before you set out on any new venture that takes you out into the crazy world beyond home and your normal support framework, that you have a concrete reason to make the journey, a rational reason to hope it might make a difference.
I wish you all the best of good luck, good results, and a feeling of comfort in your decision. With love, Hank

Thank you so much Hank. Yes, unrelenting, no break, often in tears at bedtime knowing what l will face in the morning but at the same time being grateful. I try to thank the Lord everyday the first thing when I wake up for whatever he has for me in that day. I definitely hold myself to a much higher standard in everything, then I do anyone else and have you ever heard of guilt, the gift that keeps on giving? Well, let's just say it tortures me day and night because I fall so short in my humanness. But at the same time God is such a forgiving God and I find it so easy to forgive others but not myself which we are required to do if we too want to be forgiven. It's just too much thinking and analyzing that gets me into trouble. Like my pain, my brain won't stop either LOL! 😩
I have found everyone on this website to be so supportive, encouraging, inspiring, kind, patient and the list goes on!
By the way, I try to see if I have already replied by clicking The View and reply button under a post. I notice you have to go there anyway if you want to like that person's post. But there are so many different post and subjects that I think I'm sharing the same things in those different places that I think that is what is confusing to me about the repetition issue.
First of all, is there an easier way to like someone's post? Now most of what I do on connect is on my cell phone so maybe it's different on my tablet, I should try to pay attention there to see if it's easier to like a post and to find whether or not I have already replied to or liked that post.
Hope you and Linda have a much better day than normal. Warmest regards, Sunny
