it started with a question

Jane are you gonna make it up this weekend? Kathy needs to know?
Crap what did I forget now? I am thinking I forget alot anymore my meds are such that I carry a notebook and write everything down...I quick look in my "brain" and nothing is written down there next I ask the kids are we supposed to go somewhere this weekend with someone named Kathy?Daniel thinks he has it made in the shade and says ahh yes Nana we are supposed to go to Kansas and shes your friend Bummer remember?????? I am supposed to get to play with Cody how could you forget that? Daniel Kathy is in Branson this weekend you cant pull that on me.....
So I e-mail back who is this and where am I supposed to be....and back comes an email...Its Tom its for Dads birthday.....Okay this is weird.......so theres a phone number with it and I call it....and confess I am having a brain freeze and dont know who he is and where I am supposed to be this weekend and he laughs at me.....
.....he is also having med problems...its another member from here who has gotten my number mixed with another jane on his phone and we both laugh over our meds screwing up and making us both wonder if we are loosing our minds...I should have known when I saw the way jane was spelled but I didnt think.....

Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!!

Me too... I often wonder where it is hiding. I wish I could call my keys like I call my cell phone when I can't find it... but that would be too easy I guess... lol

They say a mind is a terrible thing to waste, but what if you lost it.? I try not to do it on purpose but I often ask my wife or tell her somthing over and over.. I know at times it is fustrating, but there is perks to it. But why cant we forget about our injuries or the bad days in our lifes........ My father often says did you loose your mind, are you sure you dont have any brain damage from the accident.... All i can say is they say its still there and it may be clouded by somthing............maybee its the meds......lol.

At times it does start to drive some of those around us crazy too. Some of it is the meds but I think most is all the pain they put us through just trying to get what they owe us. And this is everything from just the treatment or med's we need to the low pay they fail to give us.
