You know what i hate?

Mom had it from a stroke. Lived 14 years with a mental capacity of a 5 yr old. Dad just had it. Worst part for my dad was it came and went at first so he knew what he had and I could see how scared he was.

That is a good nurse.
My neck, shoulders, and back are shot. I probably have a couple decades left in me, and they all feel like they're going to suck.
When watching my dad, I got to asking myself if I would rather lose my mind or my body. A clear mind knows the body is falling apart. A lost mind, at some point, doesn't know it is lost. That's what I got, anyway. I'd rather lose my mind than my body.

My brothers girlfriend had ALS, it's a god awful thing to watch

[dirtymike]

Dementia, get ready to be nothing. Two aunts had it and mom is 91 and it's wearing her thin. Mind stops reasoning and the body follows. Hope I pass before it knows I'm gone.

face it getting old sucks but the alternative is worse. spent yrs. in the usmc, was a construction worker my whole life after, ended up in a wheel chair 2 yrs. ago. was the neighborhood go to fix-it dude. only good thing is i have a 25 y.o. smoking hot nurse who's teaching me how to walk again. and she helps with my outdoor grow

I hate watching Buddy Robert get old. Repeating stories. Getting days mixed up to the point of going to an appointment the day before. Talking to himself in front of me. Couldn't grasp some basic assembly instructions on a thing. He sees it and it's pretty well freaking him out.
My dad had ALS and dementia. Watching the mind and body go is not a good time.

"Sorry" is the narcan for alcohol. Woke up one day with 3 kids, damn!!

Stomach lavage and respiratory support. But there is no reversing it. In fact if is a chronic condition acute reversal could be deadly. Nasty stuff.

Turns out it wasn't an ovor dose, someone had a stroke in the parking lot

[ductwizard]

woody, yeah unfortunatly it's everywhere now. when i 1st came from the usmc i lived in bpt. and every wk. i'd see somebody zombie walking down my street. now I'M on prescription morphine and a fentanyl patch. as a matter of fact the nurse who's teaching me to walk again just changed the patch and told me my plants need water. hoping to ease off both and replace with weed if i ever get to harvest time

[DabberDog]

What's the alcohol overdose version of Narcan? Sorry. Trick question. Alcohol kills more people and destroys more lives than opiates but there is no magic bullet.
Maaan... I have some real unpopular views about some stuff and things.

[Ckbrew]

A person I know got dosed with FENTANYL in his WEED he bought from underground source. I now keep Narcan in my med kit.

[Bowhunterwoody]

Hey ductwizard. See it right here in the valley as well. Lost a nephew to it. That shit sucks.

[ductwizard]

i don't miss city life at all

Didn't make the exit in time. Coronor sees track marks and will sign OD and science gains another corpse for study. That's in America
