It is hard to believe that I have not posted anything on this blog for a year.  It has been a busy year.  We have moved to the great state of Washington and we are trying to get used to the weather.   It is very different from California so will need to adjust.  Moved here to be near grandkids who moved in order for dad and mom to find jobs.  Could not bear to be parted from them.

My husband just turned  75 and I am continually amazed with how well he is doing.  He has reached a plateau with this brain injury and may never go any further, but that is OK.  He is happy and content and doing well physically. 

Me on the other hand not doing so well.  Just got over case of double pneumonia.  Caregivers always take care of themselves last and I am no exception.  I have learned through this illness though how important it is to take care of oneself in order to be a good caregiver. 

I will continue this blog - and hopefully, not wait so long to post.

Judy I am so glad to hear from you again I about floated up to heaven! Life happens and time get's away from us so I completely understand dropping off the face of the planet. I'm glad you are doing pretty good, and that you are on the mend from your sickies! Sending love to you and your hubby *huggles*
