All Things Health

I'd be concerned about a person regardless of what is causing their symptoms. It's a disorder as well if they are alcoholics... I wouldn't make fun of them, mistreat them, or ignore them if they are having serious issues.

Years ago, when we rented out a house. I had to go and see our tenant. She was as rough as a badgers butt, but decent and honest. Her friends, were often drunk, or drugged up, and not decent or honest.

While we were chatting, her friend sitting next to her, just went glazed over and slumped. Obviously out of it.

Jean didn't miss a beat, just kept on chatting.

The following week, she said that just after i left, she noticed her friend had gone into a diabetic coma.

You would have thought I would have known better.

Another thing I'm not doing lol I guess I need to.. step it up.. heh heh

I have two dogs, (Iused to have three) so I dont have a choice I walk them 3 times a day and when I tried one of those counter thingys Id done 6000 steps before breakfast.

Recently Ive read about the effect of (early morning) excercise in particular and its effect with Alziemer patients, its seems that exercise forst thing is the best time to stimulate the release of irisin a hormone said to increase the brain function and cognitive function.

As you know OH has dementia although not Alzhiemers but since I stopped working he is with me every day when we take the dogs out and his decline is much slower than expected.

Recently his specialist said that she would expect a person with his diagnoses to be in a care home by now, instead he is tiling our bathroom tomorrow and installng the new shower later in the week. Today hes fitting a security camera for our neighbour.
Im not saying its all down to exercise but together with a good diet and steady routine its helped keep his brain active and busy..

OMG I thought I was going blind.

I got out of the shower this morning and picked up my glasses from the table. I got dressed and the room was a bit strange looking , when I got downstairs I realised I couldnt see the figures on the clock clearly.

Tv was blurry and yet looking out of the window seemed fine. My right eye seemed to be pulling or hurting too.
I rubbed my eyes cleaned my glasses but nothing helped and when I skyped with mum my keyboard looked bent in the middle and the houses oppsite looked as if the roof line was wavey.

Reading close up seemed ok and seeing things a long way off was ok but anything mid range PC , TV or household stuff like making tea was blurry.

OH asked if I had headaches did I think it could be a stroke or a bleed. Mum asked if I needed to see a doctor but as I said I was ok until after my shower.

I decided if it was no better on Monday morning I would phone my optician..


Sitting back down I wondered if there could be a fault with my glasses and I went and got my spares from the car .. At once things felt better and with the old glasses on I could see what I was doing. Looking down I realised I had OH reading glasses in my hands ...

Walking past the table this morning he had put his reading glasses down , coming from the shower I had picked them up thinking they were mine...

DUH !

Thank goodness that was all it was

When I take a walk around the neighborhood I could hit 5K without a problem, so stepping it up to 7K is actually possible, just not something I can do every day heheh. We gotta step it up!

What a scare it must have been! Glad it wasn't anything serious. <3

I'm on it Heather, 15916 so far today.

We dont measure our routes normally in the course of a day its about 10km ( on those days I have checked) but there is a lot of difference between our walks if we take the Grote weilen its like wading through cement long wet grass and mud that makes the going tough, but if we walk the same distance on the Mardyksterpad its easy being most hard path, if we go to Oranjewoud then its a forest and we are negotiating tiny or no paths climbing over logs and jumping ditches. We dont have hills to climb its true so anyone walking in hilly areas is going to use more energy for a shorter distance..
But I dont think we should beat oursleves up about specific numbers or distances because each terrein poses its own challenges .

Sounds like some decent cardio either way! 

This might be better, though there's a lot of technical jargon that I don't understand.

It doesn't appear to be behind a paywall, either. 

Yeah, the paywall article is also supposed to be about the success of it so far on cancer now that they are really getting into it. It seems to be working!

It's all about funding... we can have ideas sitting around forever, but if nobody pays for the research and further studies, then it won't take off... What a shame. I wonder how many cures or breakthroughs we could have already had by now.... but we know cures aren't lucrative enough as ongoing treatment.

Gosshhh... I cannot wait until we have more of this for more viruses. We're heading there.

I think we are so close to a lot of breakthroughs now. It can't come fast enough...
