Alzheimers, Flame, and Friends (aka: Lions, Tigers, and Bears - OH MY!)

Tweet

Hello My Lotters! It has been quite a long time since I have been here. When I left I was having some concentration and memory problems. My family began to notice that my language use was faltering. I decided to take matters in hand and went for Alzheimer's Testing. The results came back. I Won!! Well it was not actually a win, but I was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in the early stage and was prescribed a low dose of Aricept. Another reason that I stopped posting as much as I was is that I caught myself becoming involved in flame wars of a sort. This is NOT my personality and is NOT who I am. I am so ashamed that I allowed myself to be drawn into this type of behavior. The last thing I want to add with this post is that in the next few days, few weeks, or however long it takes; I will be streamlining my "friends" list. Please don't think it is because I no longer care. Unfortunately (and this is so embarrassing), it is because I cannot remember many of you. I am totally overwhelmed at the amount of friends that I have. I will also be streamlining my "interests" list. Good Grief! I had no idea that I was interested in so many things.;-) If you find that I have deleted you as a friend and you want me to remember you, please again request my friendship. I do remember that before I automatically responded with a YES to everyone that requested and that became a problem. I will check new requests to make sure they aren't selling (I know that isn't the right word but can't remember what it is that I am meaning) something before I say YES. Otherwise I will be responding to Best Discussions and New Posters (again, not what they are called, but I do know how to find them). Happy Election Day!~ (I do remember who I was going to vote for. LOL)
