    Trapeze

    Anyone know if I can buy a free-standing trapeze that slides under the bed. The one's Duke suggested attach to a headboard. I don't have a headboard. They also said Medicare won't pay unless I have a hospital bed. Not happening as I love my bed. I'm sure things will change but right now I'd like...

    On Depression: And also, sorry, I'm new

    To the website, not the disease, but I understand it's in somewhat bad taste to post new stuff (especially long stuff, and this is long). However, I thought this might help some people. Some background: my PALS was diagnosed August 2011. At the time I was 5 years free from anti-depressants...

    Feeling Help

    Took my mom to her eye appointment today, while we were walking down the hall her rollator got away from her and she started falling forward, my arms were full of her things and I couldn't catch her. I think even if my hands were free I wouldn't have been able to catch her though because of the...

    What do you eat? What diets have you tried. Have you simply tried to maintain/gain weight or have you tried high antioxidant diets, anti-inflammatory diets, paleo, etc? Are there things you have incorporated into your diet that you didn't eat before. Have you found you feel better or worse...

    Moodiness

    Jay has been so moody lately. I get it, he's struggling and I'm the closest one to him so he's taking it out on me. But lately it's really bothering me and I'm not sure how to handle it. He doesn't really talk to me at all but to tell me to itch him, re position him, take him to the bathroom...

    It has been a while

    It has been over 2 months since I last visited the forum and I see that we have lost so many more of our dear warriors. I was having some difficulty with the losses, and then my own body gave out on me. I have been Tim's sole care giver since he was diagnosed in 2012, but have been blessed...
