Thanks, Sandy...we've talked about injections of Botox. We're working out the kinks on the sleep apnea first to see if that reduces the symptoms and keeps me from falling asleep, esp behind the wheel. Then he says we'll work from there.

Vonn...I do have a lot of stuff in my brain that I can utilize...for instance my passion for understanding how the body works, and all that jazz...but it didn't help me with the medical transcription course. I finally let them know that my cognitive difficulties are making it impossible to continue. It was actually a load off of my shoulders. I loved studying the diseases, body processes, etc. But I hated the grammar, rules, etc. And I got my BA in English with a writing emphasis! When I was 40, no less! I just had too much difficulty remembering all the rules...
I do love to write, though, & I've gotten the bug again...I get up in the middle of the night when an idea hits and get it down before it floats away...I love doing it more than almost anything.
Thanks for the encouraging words!!
