The memory thing will get better, but you need to be doing things that help, i.e. crossword puzzles, suduko(sp?), etc.....after saying that, I'll also say that things get better,slowly but surely. Keep a positive attitude and laugh alot!! I was 57 when tm came to live with me 12½ years ago.......I went from paralyzed at the t8 to one of the walking wounded. It takes lots of work, but with a positive attitude and laughter, you can make life better!! It helps that my hubby is upbeat and there for me (not the way he plannrd his retirement years), and a natural clown.,, we've laughed at many of my misadventures thru this new way of life...I've always thought that the idea if we don't laugh at ourselves, we'll be crying fit into my plan of attack. janh in OK

I was so touched by the words that I forwarded it to my family and friends. Maybe they can understand a little bit better what TMers go thru. TM hit me on May 4, 2008. With the meds I'm on the time passage thing seems even more rapid than pre-TM. The memory issues are much worse now as are the physical issues. I feel like I'm 84 years instead of 54 years! I know that there are folks out there who are worse off than I am. It's hard not to feel sorry for yourself when you're in this condition. I'm sure everyone knows about that. Anyway thanks again for sharing. Life should be easier. So should your homepage. Try the NEW AOL.com.
