I too am a CG and I feel the oppression of age affecting my moves, my thoughts, my very being. My Barbara has to take a bunch of meds, but so do I. After my 4 bypass last year, I was just told last week that I was officially a diabetic. So now with the low cholesterol regimen, I now have to watch my intake of carbohydrates. This I find particularly hard to take. After the war, I promised myself I would never go hungry again, and indeed since the Holocaust, I have done well in that respect. I have to take care of myself if I want to take care of my PD wife, and so far it has been a ball, sometimes with a chain around the ankles, but we do what we can, and indeed we can...Humor, and lots of it saves me and protects me as a shield behind which I can hide, and cry if need be. (The internal or is it the infernal squabble we just went through must have affected me because I think I am getting emotional and should het back on the 'right' path.) So! The two lists (Barb Patterson & Camilla) provide a vent for PD's and CG's easier deal with than any other of the same subject. I have seen more ignorance displayed here than I'd like to see, but hopefully much of it is being rectified. By and large, this has been an interesting experience, and I wish each protagonist good health. with love Michel Margosis 'Carpe Diem', please.
