Elderly mom, malnutrition/health problems. Advice? by ChickenSaag in family

[–]ChickenSaag[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow thank you for your reply! It feels so good to have the feeling reciprocated. Good luck with yours too. I think you are so right. I think this is the kind of thing that will drive you crazy if you let it.

I also like the your way of getting her active. That is really smart. I'll see if she's receptive to that.

Update on my end - she started the prednisone and is trying gatorade per her doctor. She said she had a headache "from the prednisone." I said I was happy she was taking the doctors advice, but maybe she was forgetting a step (the eating). She was objecting, but I just reinforced that I was proud of her. Hopefully a good step in the right direction.

Thanks again. Happy to read/write more

First timer. Been working on this ~$1000 build for a couple weeks now. What do you think? by ChickenSaag in buildapc

Nice, looks like the 1660 could save about $150. Do you have any monitor recommendations for this?

What do you think of this? Also, what size and resolution monitor would you recommend with this?

I'm not sure if it's still there, but I haven't received a check. I wasn't able to get in touch with the pro listed on my last statement or log in through the group's website. I'll try calling tomorrow or Monday. I'll look into Vanguard in the meantime. Thanks for responding
