I was just outside removing all the winter debris (leaves, branches, etc.) that have accumulated in my garden and around my bushes and trees .... and I actually worked up a good sweat, raking, dragging trash cans, scooping up leaves, breaking up limbs, and so forth. I came inside feeling really good ... but then I sat here at this computer and proceeded to eat a whole bag of sesame sticks ... granted they are low fat and no salt, but there's still a whole lot of carbs in there .... it feels like I've defeated all my exercise by doing this.
And mom? This heat is so hard on her .... she went outside to sit and after about a half hour, she could hardly stand up she was shaking so badly .... I put up the umbrella on the patio but she refused to sit under it ... she insisted she was cold and wanted to sit in the sun. When she gets insistent like this, there's not much I can do to change her mind. So, now I'm sitting here feeling bloated from all the sesame sticks and she's passed out in her recliner ... what an exciting Saturday afternoon LOL
I'm heading out the door now for a long walk before I make our dinner .... let's hope I feel better when I get home.

My name is Charles and I’m contacting you to let you know about an important webinar hosted by the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation through their Paralysis Resource Center, which I thought would definitely be of interest to you and others who visit this site.
The free webinar is titled “Autonomic Dysreflexia: What You Need to Know”, and features Dr. Steve Steins, M.D. Dr. Steins discusses this complication that is a serious side effect for some people with paralysis. It involves hypertension, and can sometimes lead to intracranial hemorrhage or stroke.
Dr. Steins will cover all aspects of autonomic dysreflexia, including its triggers, and proper management this Wednesday, April 30th, at 2pm EDT (11am PST).
For more information, including how to log in to the webinar, please visit www.christopherreeve.org/site/c.geIMLPOpGjF/b.4051827/k.5EAE/Learn_Share_Interact.htm. You will also find a one-page information sheet available to print from this location, including all of the URL and log in details that you will need.
On behalf of the Reeve Foundation,
Thank you,
Charles Forsyth
