Thank you, all who responded; sincerely! I want to write back, but I have poor concentration, energy, and lethargy problems which...I am struggling now to think of the right words to express what I want to say...But this is not about me, but my better half. It's just to let you good people know that my replies will be erratic. Bless you all from an honest heart!

Hi Blake55 have you been able to get to see your wife's doctor to discuss with him increasing the frequency of the B12 injections and checking her Folate level?

I'll bid you both goodnight as it's my bedtime now.

You are right and I will write my concerns to my exceptional love' s physician. Thank you , you precious person. I never want to disturb your slumber. X

The people on this forum are here for you no matter when you are able to reply. You must be going through a very stressful time and maybe need to speak to doctor about your own health. I wish you and your wife well.

Hi,

I hope you both get the help you need.

In all honesty, I think you may need to help yourself too. I know you care for your wife, but you also need to look after yourself too (so you are able to care for her).

Making sure a loved one is on the road to recovery can be detrimental to your own health too. It is quite possible that you could also be suffering from B12 deficiency, especially, without meaning to be rude, of an older generation.

As we age our stomach acid decreases and therefore makes it more difficult to breakdown food, which can then lead to a deficiency in vitamins and minerals

One thing that you could do is to get yourself checked out, then you know that you are in 'tip top' health so you can be there for your wife.

Bless you too!

Your words are received with the greatest gratitude. I know I have ails...just, like us all. WE are all on the same boat. To be honest, this beautiful world is contaminated.

I am about light ( even though we are born, wither then die) I refuse death! I shun death! Why? Because there is SO much to love for!...What is that?...ONE'S OWN EXISTENCE!

I am wandering.

I love it!

Love children and nature

Mental and physical deformities. Why , do I say such things?

When I know the impaired are perfect

And the perfect are impaired.

Not what you're looking for?
