It's hard to say goodbye, but that's what I'm doing.  My dad has a troubled life.  He has mental issues going back to WW2.  I'd hoped that my strength and preserverance could help his situation....

It's been two years since I've written anything.  In fact, the last time was on this site.  Anyhow, I'm not a professional writer, but there was a time when I thought of pursuing such a career....

I saw an old man on television years ago.  He was about 95 and the interviewer wanted to know what he attributed to his long life.  He answered the usual I ate this or that, but he added something...

I attended a pilates class today.  I'm new to this, so only expected to stay for part of the class.  It was hard as expected, but I looked around at all the people in the class and discovered two...

I was able to eliminate one blood pressure pill.  

I journaled this, but wanted to add to my journal here.  I'm losing weight, my blood pressure is normal, and I'm feeling great.  What more can I say.

It's finally happening--I'm losing weight.  I'm not weighing myself, just noticing my clothes are getting loser.  I'm not on any special diet plan, but what I did was to switch to hard candies...

The other day I read an article about a doctor who disagreed with chemotherapy for end-stage cancer.  He sighted that many patients get pneumonia, a relatively painless way to die, but the doctors...

Haven't journaled in a while, so here I am.  I've had some changes in my life.  I'm looking for a new church home after discovering some discrepancies  in doctrine at the church I'd been attending...

Yesterday I had my first Sunday off in two months.  It was wonderful because my grand-children came over.  Ever have one of those moments where you just want to capture it and store it somewhere? ...

It was Saturday and I was working.  The next day I had off so I decided to spend part of it with my father and the other part with my husband.  I went to a restaurant, picked up some Asian food and...

I'm getting nearer the breaking point now.  Stress at work, the boss always wanting more money.    It's the way of a sales career.  I work eleven hour days, constantly running around.  Then I...

If I were in a hospital and saw a man there with no legs I wouldn't ask him to get up and walk.  It would be cruel.  Yet, everyday I'm asking this of my father.  I'm asking him to be normal.  To...

From all of my symptoms I'd say I have the flu.  I've never had it before and it's not fun.  I had a flu shot earlier this year, but as they point out it does not make you immune to getting the...

I'm a believer.  There is a Heaven and a Hell.  Life is good in Heaven, but not here on earth or hell.  I'm jealous.  I think of my husband in Heaven with nothing but happiness.  Meanwhile I...
