You're as old as you feel?
I always knew there would come a day when I had to let things go. When I wouldn't be able to do the things I always did. When I'd tucker out by lunch time, have to be careful about food choices, need to be near a bathroom at all times.
A time when I couldn't think on my feet, couldn't come up with the right word, wasn't sure what people were talking about, couldn't keep up. A day when people would have to make special concessions for me. A time when I wouldn't go places at night, travel very far from home, or volunteer to do anything more than twenty minutes in the future. I knew the day would come, but funny thing: I thought when the day came, I'd be 85 and not 60. |
B2Y,
You make me laugh. That's way better than crying. My 18 year olds are home from college (I am a really old motha. I'll be 55 in a few days) DD engages me in a game on computer. Kinda talks about her boyfriend (No real details - not that I really want to hear them. I am her Mother) by 1 I am exhausted but kids just got home so I push to 1:45. I need to go lay down. I feel 80. |
I started out sniffling and ended up laughing at your story, Blessings.:(:D
In my mind I'm still in my 30s, I have MS, but, by gosh, it does't have me...Don't hit me..LOL. My body, however, is another story. It is 85+ and hitting the skids faster than I expected. I wonder how little Allison feels. I hate her illness, worse than mine..:mad: |
I don't feel old...just not healthy. Well, my cog fog makes me feel like MIL and I are having a race as to whose brain will fail first, hers with AZD or mine with MS...
