Thank you for your thoughts. I’m on an emotional roller coaster ride because, at this time last year my husband was fighting for his life from emergency surgery to remove hemorrhaging stomach ulcers. He died January 15.

Counseling is helping.
Joint pain is lessening somewhat; still going to PT (maybe not today - new snow overnight!).

Wakefulness continuing at night. Glad for short afternoon naps! 😊

Weight holding steady. Have also started yoga. Hey, even us older folks can learn new things! I made two quarts of bone broth yesterday. Adding that to my healthier me quest, along with Turkey Tail Mushroom and a mushroom blend. Yes, also taking Letrozole. I have to mark my calendar every morning so I know I’ve taken the Letrozole as that’s something my mind resists.

One of the first things I do every morning is check this forum. I appreciate everyone’s sharing and, especially your commitment and sharing, Chris. Let’s continue living life to the fullest and appreciating being alive every day.
