  1. The museums in DC- so many famous things
  2. My mother was getting around ok but worse, but about as getting forgetful (nothing bad) but then broke her foot about 3-4 years before she died . Started getting a little worse. Spent about 3 weeks ib a nursing hone to recover from pneumonia. Then she started going downhill. Never walked again. Basically I think after the trauma of the Pneumonia, she basically started giving up but her body wouldn't let her.
  3. We looked into Hospice for mom for the last 8 moths of her life. She had dementia. Not saying your mom is anywhere to that stage, but it is something to consider in the future. Hopefully the Hospice by you is as good as the Ralph and Mary Wilson Hospice in Cheektowaga. Had her physician refer her to them. They evaluated her and determined that she could be seen at home. They would come every other week, then weekly and then several times a week at the end. Besides keeping tabs on her, they helped us out by teaching us how to do certain things without injuring her. They had counselors and religious pep[le available to help us cope. The social worker had to come and lay it on the line to my brother that mom was dying soon. In fact it was maybe 2 weeks before the end that he seemed to finally face facts. In the end, she died the way she wanted, at home and in her own bed at 95. Even after that they helped out. Would have called the undertaker for us if we wanted, came before the undertaker (they were only a mile away), signed the death certificate, removed all of her meds from the house. You get a hospice benefit from Medicare (at least in NY) and it didn't cost a cent. Just file this knowledge away. Hospice workers are the closest thing to Angels on earth.
  4. I am Donald Trump and I approve of this message.
  5. I wouldn't call him an old man. He's around my age, later 60s
  6. Every single GD MF'n one.
  7. If you cant find a place, go to any bar or the one in your h\tel. The Bills game at 4:25 is the only one on CBS in the whole nation.
  8. I thought you were a little pipsqueak. I'm old enough to be your father.
  9. Well, they both infect the brain.
  10. Nine months post transplant! tomorrow. Doing monthly checkups now. Just blood and urine samples now. Looked at the incision in the mirror. Have a scar but can barely see it. Weight, BP, and glucose level creeping up. They have changed two of my BP meds to ones more kidney friendly ones. Started me on Jardiance yesterday. No, I will not ne doing commercials singing and dancing😄. The Jardiance will help my BP and be better for my kidneys. It also removes glucose from the blood. As it is also a diuretic, they took me off of the one I have been taking since the transplant. Also had a checkup at my cardiologist today. Looks good there too. Have an echocardigram scheduled next month, last one was July 2023. Feb will be one year, and then after that it will be checkups every 6 months.
  11. Found this a few minutes ago.😀
  12. This is the time of year to use water cannons.
  13. Bless it's little heart.
  14. Tibsy, show us on the doll where the orange man touched you.
  15. Trump: "Thanks Joe for F'ing up Kamala's campaign." Biden: "You noticed." Then the picture was taken.
