Been there, done that and wore the T shirt well and truly out...on one or two occasions, I have just given up and paid the maid extra...

Andy,

This was a sad one to read! It’s painful to watch your loved one “drowning” and in “Her sea of dementia” and you cannot help her from drowning! You are such a strong man to witness it all and to bear all this pain. I wish you an ocean of strength to continue your uphill journey with the love of your life...JOYCE!

My love to Joyce and to you!

Thanks UNCLE ANDY ~ A melancholy and yet uplifting poem and an apposite accompanying movement by Mister T ! As I have said before your ODES of devotion are a great strength to Angela & I. Angela loves Sailing and I love Rock Climbing (even in Winter in the Cairngorms) and both have their dangers especially for the feckless under 40\'s ! However ~ Your devotion teaches us ~ that whatever vicissitudes face us in the Future we will still love each other more than we do today ~ AMEN. Thanks for encouraging TRUE LOVE ~ Love & Advent Blessing to You & Joyce ~
BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

This is far more than a poem.. it is a devotion.. I truly do feel for you sir... I have witnessed first hand the varying insidious losses this bastard thing steals from those we love... respect and true Neville

This \'stings\' Gold (and with my situation at present). I used to pray that some people\'s conditions would at least stabilise, if not healing.
I can\'t imagine being in this situation. Healings, miracles, etc can still happen I believe, but I don\'t want to \'play God\' or \'mess around\' with people\'s lives. Love is wining through somehow still.

what an intriguing observation, although I guess it is one of those things that you would notice, wouldn\'t you.. maybe your beard is growing backwards..

So sorry to hear that Joyce gets slowly worse - and my hat off to you Andy for your continuing devotion.

THANKS UNCLE ANDY ~ Great Video and a thought provoking Poem ! I was young when I first heard that Song ~ I thought it was a Parent singing about their Baby ! The lyric did not seem to make sense ! Those that come to GOD ~ must believe in His existence ~ and that he is a rewarder of those who seek Him ! Without FAITH it is impossible to please GOD. Now abides these THREE ~ Faith - Hope - Love ~ BUT the greatest of these is LOVE ! Blessings & Love to you BOTH ~ BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Great write and, yes, I would love to go to Barcelona to see her live. Sadly Amazon only has samples of her work for one CD which I might treat myself to.

It is the inner dog within you. A hair of the dog in the morning is always a pick me up for the day ahead.
Alternatively, don\'t shower.

LIGHT WARRIOR said:

That\'s so strange that you get a hair when you shower, and more so, that the same thing apparently happens to another writer on this site...the fact that you penned it was a great change from the norm for the reader...take care

orchidee said:

Oh lol a good write and clip Gold. If \'the hairs of our head are all numbered\', was it hair no.4,532, or no. 2,476, or what? Maybe I\'m aiming too high - should it be 453 or 247? I dunno how many hairs we got on average.

By the way I love the music and recall playing it on the car radio whilst driving through the white villages of Andalucia - lovely memories.

And I have the same problem - and no matter how many times I rinse the shower tray there is always one left behind - they are cunning little devils.

Yes, a fine write Gold. Erm, people have the glue of life while listening to me singing - cos I cover the ground in glue, so they can\'t run away! heehee.

dusk arising said:

A guy once hired me as an expert in my field. Later he explained his interpretation of \'expert\'. \'Ex\' is a has-been and \'spurt\' is a drip under pressure.
I thanked him for employing me and assured him he had had his moneys worth.

Andy,

A wonderful write which I enjoyed reading. The woman’s reply was spot on! It reaffirms the importance of independent thinking!

My love to Joyce and you!

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks UNCLE ANDY : We always love your eclectic choice of Music : Even though we are both very much Adults of the 21st C and are still honing our sensibilities ! Coltrane always delivers a smooth SAX in any ERA : Thanks GOD for Digitally Remastered CDS !
BRIAN and I find that taste and expertise is very much socially : ethnicity & era (age) & gender related related. Because of my childhood (even though I was largely raised in London) I am much more familiar with Spanish Art : Music : Dance : Literature : Culture etc than Brian : but he now has an A-Level in Spanish and is a good student. On the other hand Brian actually understands Scouse Humour & Culture etc. We are both young enough (30 & 35) to appreciate Contemporary Culture and absorb it into our PSYCHE instead of just SAYING \"RUBBISH !\" like many of the 70+ Generation. WE HAVE A LOT IN COMMON : but also much about which we differ : BUT we observe that a balance of AGREEMENT & DISAGREEMENT (Culturewise) results in a positive & exciting marriage : AMEN
Thanks for caring : Blessings & love to you both :
ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
