I've Been Gone Too Long - ABNARTY - 06-01-2023
I want to apologize for my long periods of silence.
Recently, my wife and I have taken in my Mother. She has dementia and Alzheimers. Things have been challenging to say the least. What's worse, this is our second go around. We did the same for my wife's Mother until she passed.
We are in the process if developing some sort of new routine at home. So far, this has not included extensive periods of time I can devote to RN3. I feel bad about it because I am missing out on plenty of opportunities to get worked up about stuff and bang away on the keyboard.
I have not updated the garden or prepper thread with any updates from the ol' homestead.
Hopefully (or not depending on your POV) I will start to smooth things out here soon. You guy's are great

not to put words in others folks mouth, but i'm fairly sure that everyone here would say it's not a problem.
real life and family come first, do what you have to to take care of them then worry about us.
if our gardens grow they grow, if they don't, they don't, momma comes first.

Oh lord, I really cannot imagine what you're going through. Hope you're able to get some sort of routine worked out and if you're MIA the whole summer I (I'm sure everyone here) completely understand.
RE: I've Been Gone Too Long - Chiefsmom - 06-01-2023
Completely understandable!
You do what you need to do. And make sure you set aside time for just you and your wife too, as you know already, it gets stressful having someone else there, to take care of.

Dude! Real life calls us all and should ALWAYS take priority. You have nothing to apologize for.
Also glad to see you're still alive and kicking! Drop in when you can but don't feel bad if you can't- we all have other responsibilities.

Priorities - family comes first. We'll still be here whenever you get things smoothed out, and no rush. We'll be around whenever you are ready.

Just an FYI -

Alzheimer's Amyloid Plaque Removal May Be Aided By Vitamin D And Omega 3. In a small pilot study, a team of US researchers has discovered how vitamin D3, a form of vitamin D, and omega 3 fatty acids may help the immune system clear the brain of amyloid plaques, one of the physical hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease.

A diagnosis of low B12 levels has the potential to be far more responsive to treatment than Alzheimer's. While symptoms may not completely disappear, it's possible they may notably improve as your B12 levels are adjusted.

One research study showed that taking a combination of vitamins B12, B6, and folic acid over two years slowed the shrinkage of the brain.

Eating sugar and refined carbs can cause pre-dementia and dementia. But cutting out the sugar and refined carbs and adding lots of fat can prevent, and even reverse, pre-dementia and early dementia. More recent studies show people with diabetes have a four-fold risk for developing Alzheimer's.

I appreciate all the input. It has been trying.
There has been some disturbance to the zen at the ranch though. We are a quiet bunch and live in the woods. My Mom is the type that needs entertainment. Continually. I am trying hard to adjust to that.
And she likes watching network news. Keeping my mouth shut is difficult.
Day by day I guess...
