Good morning - TGIF! It will be in the 80's today, not bad. A busy day on tap and work and personally but all good stuff. Saw my dad yesterday. My dad loves ice cream and milkshakes (now I know where I got that from!) so I brought him a root beer freeze/shake and he inhaled it! I love to see him happy. The medical marijuana seems to be working to help his anxiety and confusion. He was calm, yet alert, remembered who I was the whole time and he was in good spirits. He is losing weight and looked especially thin yesterday due to a drastic beard trim. I know the decline is happening even though we are doing everything we can to prevent it and it breaks my heart.

QOTD - I have 3 brothers and 2 sisters. My mom was an only and my dad was 1 of 5. I have a huge family on my dad's side as my grandfather was 1 of 10 - those Catholic O'Brien's...

Accountability - there were a few pork rinds, but no popsicles so...

10 mo post op

b-coffee w/hc, SB iced coffee w/hh, HB eggs

l-left over taco innards from yesterday

d-BBQ at my brothers - protein only

v/l - on track

Have a great day all!

In honor of the QOTD - my folks and sibs...this photo was taken 4 years ago on my dad's 80th birthday. (I'm the blonde on the right in the black shirt)

LOL! My DH's big families are all McCarthys and O'Briens!

I wonder if medical marijuana would help DH (Alzheimer's). DS has suggested it.

My Dad was one of six of those O'Brien's ...both his parents came over as indentured servants?

My dad's doctor recommended MM to help with my dad's increasing anxiety and agitation. The side effects of pharmaceuticals were to much for us to consider without trying this first. So far, it seems to be working. Definitely worth looking into.
