I'm back - somewhat! - 01/16/16 04:20 PM
First, I want to apologize to MaG, Pandora, Curly, and anyone else who has emailed or called me during my long absence, for not answering.
Without going into detail, 2015 was not a kind year for me healthwise. I have spent a lot of time either in the hospital or a transition facility. Then the times I was home about the only thing I could do was go to the bathroom, but I had to hold onto someone's arm to get me there and back to my chair.
This time at home things have gotten some better. I can slowly and carefully walk around the apartment without holding onto someone. Still not doing any major cooking but, if someone fixes the food and puts it in something I can put in the microwave and heat, I can manage that.
I haven't driven my car since November 2014, so one of my children (mostly my daughter) still has to do all my grocery and any other shopping.
I can't spend as long on the computer at one time as I did before, but a little is better than none. It really feels good to be back here even for a brief time.
Love,
Jema
