We are under tornado warnings and the storm to the west of us has straight line winds of 100 mph. I hope all Alabama monkeys are safe. Caddy be careful and Trimm please check in.
Been praying for all of you today.  an angelic monkey

I was wondering if everyone could say a little prayer for me. I am sure it is nothing but my sister has been wanting to have this big pow wow - I am not sure what about but she said it is serious and she needs to talk to me. We talk all the time by email and phone but she wants to do this one in private face to face! Like I said, I am sure it is nothing but I am a bit scared - she has not been feeling great lately and I am afraid something is wrong with her. I am so nervous - which is unlike me. So a little extra strength would be appreciated!
Most Gracious Father, bless TBM and all the monkey family of which we are a part.  You know our needs before we ask, so I invite you into our hearts to feel the secret place where we love and hate, have courage and have fear, succeed and fail, feel blessed and feel forsaken . . . the innermost part of ourselves.  Anoint us with your comfort so we may remember you are faithful to us beyond our deserving and that we are never beyond your love and mercy.  This we ask in the name of love, Jesus our Saviour.  Amen and Amen.

Folks, my Mom's sister (my Aunt Mabel) who was 15 months older has passed away.  To say my plate feels like it is overflowing is an understatement.  I will probably be away from my computer for a few days, between George, my Mom, and of course, Connie.  To those who are so led, please keep Connie's candles burning.  I am trusting in a miracle.  We are blessed by the best!
Prayers for your Aunt Mabel Sister and the rest of your family and for you, especially Connie. Aunt Mabel is with God and she is safe and happy.

Hugs and love Sister!!! Be safe and know you are going to be missed and you are loved.  an angelic monkey

For Bearly- you rant on, that is what we are here for.  I feel your pain of being in a rock and a hard place with your parents.  As for the laundry, is it really about you coming to do the laundry or is it she just wants to give someone directives?  I don't know in your situation but I have found often times it is not the task at hand but control of one another.

4donks is right- take care of yourself first.

We just found out that Mom is going to be moved from the memory care over to Assisted Living maybe this week. That is one of the first things she asked me was who was going to do her laundry.  (I wanted to say maybe she didn't need to be moving then if she can't take care of it herself?)

Good point Cadi!

What is memory care?  Hear what you wanted to say, but what did you say?


Well, to the best of my knowledge it is the care of those who suffer from memory issues like dementia or Alzheimer's - in my opinion, a gentle name for the facility in lieu of "Alzheimer's" care.  Although she was diagnosed with dementia- not Alzheimer's.  I was told the difference but could not tell you.

She went to the memory care straight from the hospital with the understanding if she adapted well she could potentially move over into the assisted living. She has been there about eight weeks and they will assess her again this week to see if they think she functions well enough to move.  All signs , so far, point to a move.

One thing I have learned - did y'all know that confusion in the elderly can be as a result of infections, like urinary tract infections? Infections affect the brain.  When infections clear in the elderly, the confusion can lessen.

fixed quote


Thanks for the explanation Cadi.  Generally speaking I imagine it is more likely one would move from assisted living to memory care so it sounds like your Mom is making progress.

No, I didn't know urinary tract infections affect the brain and improve confusion when the infection clears.  Interesting.  Thank you.

One other thing, if the person has had anesthesia in the last year.  Apparently it takes a year to recover memory after that.



The simplest explanation of the difference is that Alzheimer's is a form of dementia but there are many causes including Alzheimer for dementia. Sort of like cancer and breast cancer - one is a subset of the other.

I have heard about the anesthesia issue - I know that any surgery or injury can rapidly accelerate the Alzheimer and that acceleration may or may not return closer to the before state.
Did not know all of this TBM, so thankful for your knowledge. My stepmom's dad has been dealing with Alzheimer/demetia and he had surgery a year ago. Very interesting.

Yea = the geriatric doc with have for my MIL recommends no surgery unless absolutely needed.

This is CC - I snuck on JSM's computer while she's walking Patton and I'm waiting for Chinese food to be delivered.  Still waiting for Cookie to post pics of her new dog Molly that she picked up at O'Hare today.  Cookie?  Where's Molly Mocha?

I am not sure if I can ask this question, or rather I should say, if anyone has permission to answer the question, but where does Trimmy live?  I am thinking she is up in the northwestern part of Alabama?  I was just curious as to how we can find out if she is okay - maybe just internet or PC issues?

We are okay here - no bad weather in the Ham.

I believe Trimm is in Cullman County. She posted pictures of the tornado that hit there last year. So far just strong storms with hail (1 1/2 in) Keeping fingers crossed for all the monkeys in harms way.

Night Monkeys, just ate Shrimp fried rice and my lips are tingling, palms are itching and head is itching. No hives yet so I am going to take a benadryl and relax. Hope all are well and prayers with all of you and especially you in the path of the storms.

Hugs prayers and love JSM

Glad you and 4Donks are okay Caddy. I am really concerned about Trimm. I don't think since I came to SM that she hasn't been on for any length of time but when she last power.

Going to go to bed. I hate night storms because you can't see what's coming. Anyone that thinks spending an evening in a walk in closet with 5 dogs is good friday night date has another think coming. Thank God for the thunder vests.
Apparently there are 4000 homes without power and hwy 77 (my only main road out of here) is blocked by downed power poles and trees. WHOLE HOUSE GENERATORS ARE GREAT !!!!! I am worried about Trimm...wish she would contact us. Praying she and her family are all right.
Sisters are without power but have a portable generator and made it through OK. Will wait till morning to see if I have any damage from the hail or winds. Thanks for your concern it is appreciated.
With the tornado alerts I let the donks out and opened the gate to the pasture so they could get away from  the barn if necessary now I will be wrangling donks on 60 acres tomorrow. May need one of these.
