Kathy has "walking pneumonia". She got it from me. We share everything! But still, she came out dancing with me last night. We both took it easy, but once again had a great time. Meeting people, dancing and smiling. Another Friday night booked! I just started dancing again after twenty years since a TBI in 2006. Its awesome! I got her these PJs from the hospital gift shop. Shes worth it!

Step One in MAID Journey. I have friends that have chosen their own ending, one here on X that was one of the first and remembered often by me. RIP Mike Sloan and my friend Tom also chose his day and way to the next life. I find it hard they dont answer the phone and talk to a person personally on the initial enquiry. Im starting now because im falling fast and my family and I like to prepare for whats ahead. I have three terminal diseases that ALL my doctors say can not be cured and my body shows the effects on the inside if not on the outside. Im not afraid, but not a robot either. Sometimes we cry for what we still want to do and the people and life I still wish to have. I dont know when the end is at all, and I plan to be at Nickelback's concert on April 6th next year. I have all kinds of plans made like Im going to live forever and I will do everything I can to make more beautiful memories with my family and with you. I love life! This is the email they send to me to start me off. Paliative care people are on my team for awhile now but can not help me with MAID. Its prohibited. It would be better if they could help me too. Waiting days and leaving a message to a machine asking for help in dying isnt great. "Thank you for your inquiry. The Care Coordination Service is monitoring incoming e-mails each weekday. If you are making a request for medical assistance in dying, the Care Coordination Service will attempt to respond to you within 2 – 5 business days. If you have asked a question related to AHS policy, processes and/or resources related to medical assistance in dying, we will forward your question to the appropriate subject matter expert, who will attempt to respond to you directly within 5 business days. Thank you for contacting the MAID Care Coordination Service Intake Mailbox."

Joe Rogan on Trump Administration rescheduling marijuana: “Another thing the Trump administration has done with marijuana, they're moving marijuana into Schedule 3. So instead of it being this thing that has ‘no medical use’- well of course it has medical use. It helps cancer patients keep their hunger during chemotherapy. It gives people relief of pain. For some people, it helps them with anxiety. There's a lot of benefits to it.” -@joerogan @joeroganhq
