Hello to my buddies
 

I am learning to know you , trying to give you a face in my mind. I also give you a color to remember YOU ! Wat color would you like best ?
Why do you like it ?
Are you busy with the Thanksgiving ? My body and my thinking goes faster after starting with Madopar (Sinemet).
Have a glorious weekend .

Hello Vertigo.
 

You can find a picture of two of us fellow forumites on page 11 in Weekly Check-In Sept 30-Oct 6, 2007.
It looks as if my husb. and I will have to eat the whole turkey ourselves this Thanksgiving, in which case it will be a duck or a pheasant since husb. isn't wild about turkey. Our children will be here for Christmas, so the in-laws get them for Thanksgiving. So I'm not busy at all.
Do you have Mortens Aften in Norway? If you do, I hope your goose was good.
Color? Blue of course - it's the favorite color of most Danes.
I'm very happy for you that the medicine is working so well for you.

Ha' det godt,

birte

hello
 

Just to thank you for your threads which I am following ... I feel your words come from the heart .. good luck with your medication.. and look forward to your input

Hallo birte,- thank you for giving me your photo ,you are to the left ,your friend to the right. This evening I have to rest , had an active day with my physiotherapist group and later talking with my friend who is in the terminal stadium of her cancer decease's has now started with morfin, wanted me to come will go Monday. SO -, this is not what I should say to you, I say: I will answer you my "blue buddy" next week.

Rose pink
 

Hi Vertigo,

I am the friend on the right side of the picture on that hyggelig day when Birthe and I met in person. I chose rose pink because it makes me feel cheerful. My true favorite color is Danish blue (cobalt blue, like the Christmas plates). Maybe that's why I enjoy Birthe so much.

We are going to visit friends for Thanksgiving. None of our children can come. All of my family live on the West coast of the U.S., while I live on the East coast.

May you and your sick friend find peace with her illness.

Jaye

Aaaargh and ak ja......
 

I take pills to help my balance, but I haven't found any to help my manners - and they seem to be failing me too. Here I showed a picture of Jaye and me, and I did not introduce Jaye....Not a word did I say about the wonderful day when we met. And it was so very hyggelig. I don't know what I was thinking, I think I wasn't thinking at all.
And still you say such nice things about me, Jaye. Thank you, you are a real friend.

I'm really blue now. I'm going to stand in the corner until I've forgiven myself.

Older and no wiser birte.

Oh, Birthe...
 

...you are being silly again. Vertigo could read about me because I posted the picture, and I also posted on her first thread here, so no introduction was necessary. I thought her mention of the "friend" was a kind invitation for me to step forward again. Let's just not worry, and have some more hyggilig times! :)

Jaye

vertigo, i just wanted to pop in say hello and welcome.

i am part norwegian. i think one of the last of my family to make lefse and kumla. can't speak a word of norwegian anymore. my great-grandmother and grandfather was from norway and i could always understand her. even when she wasn't speaking english. :)

i still have a little card with a cookie recipe and she wrote this:
I Jesu navn går vi til bords
å spise, drikke på ditt ord.
Deg, Gud til ære, oss til gavn,
Så får vi mat i Jesu navn.
Amen.

my picture is in my profile. i always pick brown...for my favorite food CHOCOLATE! :D

It is a prayer , THANK TO THE LORD FOR THIS FOOD
 

Hei Curious,- How nice that you want to be my chocolate friend. Chocolate is very healthy ,we should have some every day, dessert of life.

Was your family from the west coast of Norway? We still eat lefse and kumle, but most people buy it ,it takes a long time to make it ,and Norwegian women don`t have time to cook. They work , and do sport, driving the car ,shopping ,loving their children and being very, very tired in the evening.
This is not every woman ,but most of the young and strong ones.

About my wish for a collar, it is shoving me the persons that think a bit like me, passion, fantasy,courage.

Best - from me,

I see you, Rose pink
 

Dear Jaye
I can see that you are cheerful, then it is good to be near you, and a rose is soft and the smell is something special.
I have been in the theater this afternoon with my two grandchildren , it was a fairytale story ,in December we will go to the opera in Oslo to See "The Nutcracker", ballet. In my mind I gather good memories for the good life.
When I visit my seek friend and See how she change because of the morphine is not easy, but it is life, and we have to take it all-.

Best greetings

I just have to say..
 

That i believe that you are a "very real" person, vertigo. Let me explain. Over the years some people have shown up on "neurotalk" or "braintalk" as it used to be known, and were not genuine people. Do you know what i mean? Some people find that the internet is place where they can "play games" with honest people's minds, where they take trust and friendship as emotions upon which they can "pretend" to want to engage in, but their real meaning is something very bad; they want to gain your trust, just so they can "ruin it" by all of a sudden saying mean things meant from their cruel hearts to hurt you. I think you get the message. We call these bad people "trolls", and yes , they "hide under the bridge" until the moment when they find you at your weakest and then "turn on you".
Well, we have gathered a group of people here who are not trolls (at least we believe that there are many good-hearted , well-meaning people here, who's only reason for being here is to make life easier (if they can, in any way) for the person who shares the terrible disease of parkinsons.
You seem to be a very good person, who would only wish someone else well, and not have any other "bad reasons" for being here. I, for one, deeply respect that in a person, and am very happy that you have made the descision to join us.
Maybe you are still wondering why i am saying these words to you. Well, if you are, private message some of the people you have met, and trust here, they may be able to explain it better than i can. In the mean time, I lift my beer in salute to you, and say something like "Skoll", which I think is a Norwegion or maybe Swedish greeting that means to extend friendship and long life. Am I right? cs

Hello Vertigo Its nice to put a face with a name. We get to know each other because we have something in common. Parkinson's Disease isn't good but I am glad there are others out there to share my journey with. I like the colour yellow because it is like the sun. It is warm, bright and happy. I thought you might like to see a picture of me with my new granddaughter Ella. She is almost 3 weeks old, what a joy to have grandchildren.

Hello ol´cs, - -I have you in my garden, you are sitting in a big chair, smiling , lifting your glass of beer while you say ,SKÅL !
I will take care, I have been out in the Winter night some times, still learning not to be
naive. So, happiness is just a world for nothing left to lose, I like to be in my garden in "braintalk" with my buddy's. Good night.

Hello Evon , and thank you for that nice picture of you and Ella, she will bring many good things to your life .My eldest grandchild is soon 16, about 195cm high ,my youngest is soon 2 years, and like a doll .
Welcome to my garden with your warm yellow sunshine.
