Vaginal and Urinary Infections Can Cause Hallucinations
If you are someone who is caring for an older person who doesn’t easily care for themselves, I can’t stress enough how important bladder and vaginal infections are to the health of the brain. Even a mild vaginal yeast infection can cause all sorts of craziness. There may be little symptoms or indications of these […]
Bill and Kay Kleinsorge came to visit Dena
Mom was over-joyed thinking about Bill and Kay coming to visit. There wasn’t any special event to attend or to fuss over, just good times with family. Visits by people mother has always loved made the weekend nice. Mom’s been fighting some infections that have made her less of herself. But, other than that, it […]
Sunday with Mom, Dena Kleinsorge 06-26-2011
I so wish I had thought to take pictures. It was just one of the nicest Sundays, ever. It began with gardening, getting the beds ready for my late plantings of the flowers. I’ve been sick this spring and unable to do as much as usual. I’m feeling better. Breakfast on the porch, blueberry pancakes […]
Little Update on Dena Kleinsorge and talk about thinking problems in older people-causes for dementia, psychosis, hallucinations…
This was actually a draft that I thought I published back in March. I just found it and so am now publishing it for you. It was originally written on March 17th, 2011. Thank you for caring about Mom. Sorry I haven’t written more lately. Here’s what’s been going on with Mom. The good […]
Humbled by my blessings in the face of Joplin and Memorial Day
Some days I find myself in a struggle with the details of life, what to do with the stacks of paper clutter, in a search for enough time to practice my music to honor the gift that God gave me. Even the weeds that are taking over my flowers creep into my dreams and I […]
I Don’t Wanna Say Good-Bye…YouTube for Momma, Dena Kleinsorge
Ok, so we’ve loved being in Baja. But, it’s meant that I couldn’t spend as much time with Mom as I have in recent years. I went back for two trips to visit during our time away. Seeing her struggle with purpose and the sense of happiness saddened my heart and made it even harder […]
The New Year’s song and our 2010 review in less than 3 minutes!
When we wanted to put together some of our family memories to share with you, I thought about the music to add to the show. I honestly haven’t found ANYONE who knows what Auld Lang Syne means. I know I can google it and find about a million answers. But I decided that I needed […]
Happy New Year, 2010 and more…
Hello and Happy New Year! Forgive me for not writing sooner. Sometimes I don’t write because I’m just not sure what to say…I KNOW…ME not knowing what to say! That’s a new one. **chuckle** But, I have to say that this past 20 months or so have left me speechless at times. I want so […]
Zucchini casserole recipe from LaVerne Gallagher in Gridley, Kansas
The following recipe is one from Mom’s recipe box. I asked her today to pick out a recipe and tell me about it, who gave it to her and such. She chose the Zucchini Casserole that LaVerne Gallagher had given to her in Mom’s early cooking years. The Gallaghers ran the Gallagher Machine Shop in […]
Pilgrimage to Kansas, November 5-6
The anticipation of this trip to Kansas is with great excitement and dread. **chuckle** But, so far everything that I’ve met with the excitement in my heart has turned out to be something wonderful. I keep telling my daughters that nothing is worth doing if it doesn’t take some effort, that you have much more […]
