Cat Scan

CAT SCAN

Some of you have asked what I am doing towards maintaining my health. 

• Meditation
• Prayer support
• Acupuncture weekly (note the "cat scan" I am receiving during a recent session)
• Physical Therapy twice a week
• Swallowing therapy every three weeks
• Mental health check-in every three weeks
• Osteopathic manipulation and cranial sacral therapy every two weeks
• Vitamin regime plus injectable B
• Movement disorder specialist in Seattle every three months
• medications for keeping my blood pressure from falling
• medications to keep my blood pressure from going too high
• wearing a "life alert" necklace

The really important things I am doing:

• using my life alert necklace to get Chuck to come home quickly for a little
  afternoon delight

• Hanging with family and friends

• Laughing until I wet myself (not hard at this point)
• eating pot candy (hence the reason I laugh so hard)
• cuddling, doing art, telling stories with my grandchildren
• continuing to teach classes and be an active Practitioner for CSL Olympia
• continue offering Spiritual Playground, my monthly drop in class
• going to museums, art walk and as many plays and musical events as I can talk Chuck into
• cuddling with Chuck
• Planning a family trip to Great Wolf Lodge
• Planning a month on the Big Island
• Living every day to full
• drawing, painting and writing (I am working on a set of small multi-media images right now)
• knowing how rare my disease is, I alone can change the "average" lifetime for this disease to 20+ years
