  13. With many thanks to Compostc and Louise for their very generous and kind donations! x Many thanks to members for your continuing monthly donation ... You're all very kind and it's much appreciated especially during these tough economic times. x
  14. With many thanks to Subzero and Mrs Subs for their very generous and kind donation! x Many thanks to members for your continuing monthly donation ... You're all very kind and it's much appreciated especially during these tough economic times. However, with the present cost of living I would much rather that you can put your heating on this winter and if you need to cancel your monthly paypal donation, please do so and don't feel guilty or bad for doing it. Some members cancelled their monthly donation a few months back, so don't feel alone if you need to do so. We're all going through very tough times at the minute and it makes sense to put food on the table and put the heat on. BTG won't disappear .... it's not going anywhere and it's financially strong. Please do what's good for you. xx
  15. Beautifully said Pat! I feel exactly the same! x It sounds as though you're doing well and I hope that you've managed to celebrate your 6 years in some sort of way ... Well done Pat and I'm glad that this little community has given you comfort. Much love to you and sending healing hugs. xx

  17. Thanks Subs and I can't believe it's been 17 years .... I'm very lucky and appreciative and it's great to see members like Andrea also having their milestones and sharing their journey too. x
  18. Andrea, that photo tells a thousand words and thank goodness for the guys who provide this service! Well done and hope that you celebrate! 🀎 I had my 17th anniversary on Monday ... so I'm 10 years ahead of you ... it's a date that you never forget, but it does get easier with each passing year. xx
  19. Hi Suzie, re: driving assessment - We have a Behind the Gray Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/behindthegray and one of our Australian visitors has kindly offered the following information. "There are time frames dependent upon the brain injury. But if your neurologist says its ok, then its ok. If there is uncertainity, there are specialist occupational therapists who can complete a driving assessment - this is more a test of the cognitive requirements during driving, decision making, reaction times, planning, and then a physical test afterwards" You can click on the link below for a driving fact sheet. https://strokefoundation.org.au/what-we-do/for-survivors-and-carers/stroke-resources-and-fact-sheets/driving-fact-sheet?fbclid=IwAR2VLAWF96l3yo_5CHQ5NbZVX20Tp_uU5p81M5vKy3Ok2Xl2-fvskEPNx5M#:~:text=You must not drive for at least four weeks after,medical clearance from your doctor
  20. With many thanks for all of your kind donations and just to let you know, that BTG is solid for the next 18 months with hosting and keeping it running. There's enough funds in the bank. The cost of living is absolutely dreadful at the minute with rising fuel, food, electric and gas bills....it feels as though it's never ending and bad news always just around the corner. For those of you who donate monthly, please feel free to cancel your donation .... you don't need to contact me, as Paypal will send me an email to let me know. I would much rather that you put your money towards your bills and can put the heat on this winter. We can raise future funds at another point when times are better. Take care all. x
  21. Thanks Subs for posting x... Win was a beautiful soul. Thinking of Sarah and Al. I can't believe that it was 2 years ago since Win passed. Keep singing Win! πŸ’–xx

  24. Congratulations Super Mario! Happy 18th Annie-versary and hope that you're enjoying your special day and celebrating. πŸΈπŸ’– xx
  25. Hi cookiebutter, I completely agree with Tina's reply about the bruises and blood thinners. I would also check out if your Grandma might possibly have a UTI (Urinary Track Infection) which is causing the confusion and changes in behaviour, especially if she's not taking in enough fluids in and eating very little, as we still take in water from food. Dehydration/UTI is pretty common in elderly folk, as they forget to drink. I'm not sure whether you live with Grandma, but keep an eye on her fluid intake, make sure she's drinking enough and take a written note of when she drinks, if you can.... I would ask for a visit from her Doctor to check out other possible causes for her confusion. Check out the seizure medication and any side effects.. Just relay to the Doc what you've told us. We can't offer medical advice, as none of us are medically trained.... but I would certainly get a medical professional in. x
