Hi Emylainder,
I received your post. A whole lot has happened to your husband since May. I hope for your continued support from your son and his wife. And for the best for your husband's health.
On 9/9/22, after a hard rain, we were told to evacuate from our apartment. The Fire Department was there and we only had a few moments to gather up some things and our pet bird to go to a motel. Two days ago, I was able to get my laptop and deleted 1,790 e-mails. We call every few days and they tell us when to call next. We are still taking it day by day in the motel room. Thank you for your update. It is good to touch bases with you.

Hey there @emyliander and @carolee888, hello again. Greetings. How nice to see those names again. And, as soon as I saw them together my memory clicked with joy. It sure does seem like you both have had some pretty heavy issues with which you have been dealing. Have you noticed any improvement in your cognition?
Just wondering if either of you is seeing a therapist specializing in memory issues. I did participate in several hours of testing and am now waiting for a therapist who has an opening. My life partner and my daughter attended the culmination appointment. Jay was very impressed with the new testing that was used and the many facets that were measured. Now he helps me gently at home.
How was summer for you? Did you travel, garden, or entertain? I have been busy with our chipmunks. We have a new one who is quickly learning the routines. We also had great summer visits with grandchildren at one of the 10,000 MN lakes.
Have you heard from @centre?
May you have happiness and the causes of happiness.
Chris
Thank God you are all Ok but it must be tough living in the motel. Hope you can get back home soon...good luck !

Routine does help but on 9/9/22, we were evacuated from our apartment. The whole 3rd floor, 8 couples and a few elderly singles, we all had to pack quickly and make it to an apartment. We get updates often but miss the many comforts of home. They say that they will pay for the motel fees and will feel better when we get reimbursed and if we are able to return!
