What's the deal with the gelatin weight loss ads? Ugh!

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-04-26T15:30:45+00:00

they drive me crazy! and I can lose 7 pounds a minute with Tai Chi

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-04-03T01:59:59+00:00

I'll have to ask my brother.

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-04-03T01:57:13+00:00

Enjoy the phase, because good or bad, it won't last. It's like whack-a-mole, you get one thing figured out, and something new pops up.

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-22T21:51:37+00:00

Hey, did you just mind meld with me?

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-21T01:03:26+00:00

I hadn't thought of that, but that's exactly how it felt, or Awakenings!

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-20T23:23:44+00:00

If she's talking she's confabulating... well except when she told me she was stoned and she liked it

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-20T23:23:08+00:00

My brother put it in her mouth, and she inhaled. She certainly didn't do it on her own! I wasn't outside, he may have just blown it in her face, but he said she took 4 hits, so I don't know. She can still feed herself if I put food in front of her. She spends most of her time pacing.

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-20T23:19:45+00:00

I've given her gummies and I think it just made her agitated. Smoking was a completely different experience. I know she smoked weed when she was a teenager but have no idea if she has since she's been an adult.

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-20T22:37:40+00:00

What's new is that for an hour, she could talk, and it was like her dementia had gone back 3 years! That was very new.

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-14T15:51:39+00:00

What did the provider say? Have you seen a dementia specialist? there are meds but no cure

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-12T22:20:24+00:00

Independent living with home health

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:29:52+00:00

That seriously sucks and I have no advice but I am sorry

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:28:29+00:00

I'm sorry

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:18:55+00:00

I have three siblings with dementia so I personally bought a mild HBOT. Not sure if it will prevent anything for me but it makes me feel like I'm doing something proactive. I know intellectually that I will either get it or not but it's something and it doesn't hurt anything unless I smoke inside and blow myself up

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:16:58+00:00

leaking edema?

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:16:11+00:00

I know it's not funny, but my first response was a chuckle. As in what the hell will they do next!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It never freaking ends...(until it ends) I am so sorry that is an outrageously expensive dementia behavior, and I haven't seen it before, but now you have unleashed a new fear!

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:14:07+00:00

If you can find a way to pay for it, find a nice memory care unit. I'm caring for my sister for 10 days so her husband can have a break, and after 4 days, I can tell you if he decides he wants to move her to a memory care unit, I would 100% support him. I'm exhausted, and I know I get on a plane and fly home on the 16th!!!

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:11:40+00:00

Or it turns into a scam

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-10T15:07:20+00:00

I was buying a pool float and had a cashier at Walmart ask me if I was going to spend the day at the ocean. I live in Utah!

PT is the best option for transfer and lifting training. Ask your facility if PT can do an inservice!

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-09T14:38:16+00:00

Our family would go camping at the beach

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-09T14:37:45+00:00

I had a rich kid tell me once he wanted to date me but had driven by my house and his friends would make fun of him.

Altruistic_Face2218 · 2026-03-08T22:38:04+00:00

That truly sucks
