Several members, some of them very dear friends have asked how I am these days. One member whom I adore sent me a PM today that read "Doing better I presume. :)"

I will share my reply to him, and update you all at the same time smile

My reply:

As long as I take an Ativan every time I turn around yes. I have stress induced hypertension, which is different than my normal hypertension, apparently it is a nervous breakdown from shouldering and dealing with so many people's problems and my own for way too long. In other words I am going stark raving mad ! Madder then I was before !

Truth is my Doctor is worried about me and has me seeing a Stress Management Specialist, and a Doctor who deals specifically with Stress Induced Hypertension. I am practicing yoga and will be exploring Tai Chi. But first, before the Tai Chi, I am getting away from it all, several weeks in a small cottage on the banks of a river, in a small town, in my favorite place in the world smile

Thank you to everyone for your prayers, your good wishes and good thoughts, the PM's and texts, they were gratefully received, and will be forever cherished smile
