🤲🖐👋🙌✌ lol

[greatjohn]

ha ha ha....I'm laughing...but I can't remember why~!!!

[Hidden]

Yes!

I have to lay out all the pills in a row first, then make sure to close the container. If not, will wonder, did I took that. Then I get anxious and fearful, about taking Prednisone again, yikes!

Have a rule - do not use headphones when using the microwave, DING!

Also, stopped putting beers in the freezer, to make it colder before drinking.

Although, feeding and walking my dogs have not lapsed for a second. They're amazing memory aides...

Sad but true...but we've gotta laugh about it...

Wake up every day remembering things I'd be better off forgetting, and forget half the stuff I need to remember.

Dad called this morning (he's 96) but he couldn't remember why, and I was no help, but we worked on it for a while and actually had some meaningful conversation before we were done, I think.

Good news though, I remembered today is Mrs.' birthday; still trying to figure out why there was a Cialis in my daily tub full of pills though.

Keep smiling my friends.

In continuity, i wish you all forget why you were here on this group in the first place, all that you are going through and the Big C itself in turn forgets you for good.

Sending good vibes and healing energy your way! :))

[j-o-h-n in reply to Summm]

Thank you and a big DITTO to you.

Bless the person who invented the daily pill organizer. In addition to regulating my pill intake I now know what day it is.

[jsmith2506 in reply to Hidden]

LOL.....you're right about that one....!

[j-o-h-n in reply to Hidden]

Yep, but I get confused between Sunday or Saturday and Tuesday or Thursday. Thank goodness they all end in DAY.

What do I raise if I forgot everything? "Going through the alphabet....A-B-C-D" is something I have to do every day...sometimes I even forget the alphabet! Occasionally I have to ask Google for help with that; however, I'm really in trouble when I can't spell 'alphabet'!

[Grumpyswife]

My husband’s forgetfulness is starting to rub off on me. He’s on Aricept.

[bhr17]

My favorite is I walk out the door and stop to figure out why I walked out the door🤪🤪🤪🤪

[j-o-h-n in reply to bhr17]

👍👍👍

Been there, done that and have the tee shirt to prove it.

[j-o-h-n in reply to redbank]

Remember you can always use the Hansel and Gretel breadcrumb method if you ever lose your way home (in a bird free environment).

My memory is not too bad. I think I would have struggled with the crazy pill schedule back when I was 20, I’m 59 now. What drives me nuts is the constant dropping of things I try to pick up with my fingers Every time I pick up something small I’m bound to drop it a few times. I’ve been told the lack of the finer sense of touch is actually a known side effect of some of the drugs we are taking.

[j-o-h-n in reply to ewhite999]

Whew!!! Thank goodness someone else has that same pickup problem.... I thought it was only me. YOU MADE MY DAY... Thank you. (misery loves company)

[monte1111 in reply to j-o-h-n]

I haven't picked up any women in a long time. If the police pull me over and tell me to stand on one leg and repeat the alphabet I will be screwed...in so very many ways.

[j-o-h-n in reply to monte1111]

If they tell me to stand on both legs and repeat the alphabet I will be screwed.

Yep prednisone all over the floor this morning 😂

[Maleko808]

Two hands up but cant remember its is becuase om a question or hoping wife will toss me some popcorn. Wait, its because my team scored.

Was there a question here?

[j-o-h-n in reply to Maleko808]

I forgot what you posted. Did you say you scored with your wife and that made you pop your corns?

[Maleko808 in reply to j-o-h-n]

I think I scored. She went to bed and the game is still on and I have popcorn in my lap. All good.

Someone ought to do a survey about memory, dont you think?

[j-o-h-n in reply to Maleko808]

I don't think that's a good, what was that again? Geez, I keep forgetting what I forgot.

[Hidden]

Yes indeed, Xtandi.

[Tjc1]

Yep i finally resorted to making a list before going to the store even if its 3 things. The worst is forgeting where im going when driving. It may just be for a few seconds but still a little scary.

[j-o-h-n in reply to Tjc1]

GPS, but the secret is to remember to turn it on.

[j-o-h-n in reply to RICH22]

[monte1111 in reply to Tjc1]

If you are like me it is useless. I always forget the list.

[j-o-h-n in reply to monte1111]

A list? What's that?

My wife asked me if I thought I had a good memory and I couldn’t remember. She tells me where to go when I am driving, I hate that. Then I miss my exit! So I say, why didn’t you tell me to exit? She can’t win, and now I can’t remember your question....

[j-o-h-n in reply to Hidden]

I left my left turn direction signal blinking and my wife said "John you left your turn blinker on" and I said " I know, I left it on to remind me to turn it off". She smacked me...

[Tjc1 in reply to j-o-h-n]

Sounds just like us!

[RICH22]

if i can only remember which is my left and which my right....

[j-o-h-n in reply to RICH22]

Very easy, figure out which one is left, then the other one gotta be the right. You know it's just how you figure out your left sock from your right sock.
