Completed the marathon !!!!!! It felt so good crossing the finish line. It took 2 days to fully recuperate. I'm back to walking around the neighborhood again. Doing this makes me feel like I can take on anything. This marathon is something I signed up for in January. It's not a Boston qualifier so a...

Hi Chris ! Nice to meet you. The marathon is in 4 days and I'm getting butterflies ! LOL !!!! I think I'll just use them to help me move faster to the finish line. Before I know it, it will be over and hopefully I'll have good memories from it. It's not the type of marathon that everyone involved is...

It's been a long time since I've posted here.........over a year ! Quite a bit has happened, but the best thing is that I'm not walked all over anymore. I'm not afriad to say what's on my mind without being insulting to others. If a friend or family member has something negative to say, I don't wait...

THH !!!!!!! You're here !!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Sorry to hear about your panic attacks coming back ! I can relate to construction traffic. I have construstion to drive thru about 50% of the way to work ! I haven't had to pull over yet, but I do get those old spacey feelings for sure....

Thanks Lovelife ! I am taking care of myself because that's how mom would've wanted it. I miss her like crazy. It's one day at a time for me. Monday is Thanksgiving here in Canada (it's about a month earlier than the U.S. Thanksgiving). I'm heading out to the country with family and friends for a tu...

My mom passed away a few days after my last post. The dr originally gave her 6 months to live, but she ended up going over 2 years ! I'm really sad about that, but at the same time, I'm glad I had all that time with her. She was 84. There's a lot of strife right now, but I decided to walk away from ...

Hi Forever Young ! It's good to see the oldies but goodies on this board. That's really rough when we go thru panic attack spells. I remember you telling me about taking care of your elderly parent. Mom's in a senior's home, but she took a turn for the worse a few days ago. She's covered under insur...

I decided to log back in after a long time away. My panic attacks came back, but I'm fighting thru them. My mom is in a seniors home now and she has a battery of health problems. I go there 6 nights a week to help out and I'm more than happy to do it (she took care of my sorry behind for a long time...

I've been away from the boards for a little while, but just posting to say that everything is going good. I'm fortunate enough to have a job, food on my table and a roof over my head. It's been a constant uphill battle, but I've overcome. I've grown a lot thru the stress and I wouldn't change it for...

THH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yikes ! You've been going thru a ton of stuff ! I've been having computer problems so I am back now. That's a shame about your uncle. I'm well aware of ungrateful relatives. I'm dealing with a few now. Getting that dizzy feeling is normal. I always thought it was caused b...
