Hi @jamesm

How are you doing today?

I am to hear about your memory issues, and general tough time. Everyone goes through tough times you are not alone. The loved ones around you will understand your condition and know that you mean well. You aren't letting them down. If you can, try to take some time for self care. It is important that you take care of yourself so that you can help other people. Try calling a friend or family member and see if they have time to catch up. People around you will appreciate the thought and you may feel a bit less lonely!

Just one suggestion. Let me see if other Carenity members have any other suggestions to offer!

I take each day as it comes, try to have a focus for that day. Today is pretty good, but it gives me a nudge every now and again. H
