Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 22/07/2025Thanks, Alan. She is actually enjoying life more than she ever has. No worries, no stress. We play in ways she couldn’t before. I am enjoying that for both of us. But there are moments that hurt. And, somehow, acknowledging and sharing them makes them easier to handle. 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 22/07/2025Sorry you’re still struggling. We are doing ok, though I am tireder than usual. Which may also have to do with regaining muscle mass I lost while out of the pool while traveling. 020

Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 18/07/2025Thanks. She is happy, and I’m taking that as a win. The trip rekindled her thinking about ceramics, as we saw so many friends and family with pieces of her work. We’ll see if she’s actually able to create now. 030
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 18/07/2025We’re at the studio where my wife did her ceramics today. Cleaning her work area of mouse detritus, she hasn’t been here in 1 1/2 years. She used to own this space, now needs direction. To ease the heartache there is a beautiful spiderwort. 460
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 12/07/2025A lot of people don’t want to make the effort to take that control. And many are so used to be fed something, they don’t know or understand they need to take control here. 000

Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 05/07/2025No paxlovid. Do have a young friend who has picked up tests, cough medicine and groceries for us. 000
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 05/07/2025I did not manage. She tested positive Tuesday. Trying to take care of her while being so out of it myself is hard. Both of us coughing, my chest is heavy and I’ve been sealing with nausea. 130
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 04/07/2025Struggling. Got outside to sit in the sun for a while today. That felt good. 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/06/2025It was exceptional. For both of us. I was adopted as a mom 4 years ago by a young woman who calls me her logical mom. She and her fiancé made it up from Tennessee. Was good to finally hug each other. Saw other online friends for the first time. Was soul filling. 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/06/2025My knee did fine. A bit stiff, flying was a thing, but all it all it did well. 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Two weeks in Michigan with my niece and her family, (my sister and her other two children and spouses are there also) a week in Colorado with my brother and his girls. In Michigan we had a family reunion, the other 4 siblings and families came up. Colorado was old friends week. 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/06/2025I’m not sure how much I’m actually reading and how much I’m just moving my eyes over very familiar words ;-) I am a strange anomaly. Video has never been something I enjoy. I will watch things socially, but left to my own devices I never think to. My kids can get me to watch ;-) 110
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Thanks. We did have a wonderful trip to Michigan and Colorado. Saw all the family and old friends. Everyone got time with her while she knows and can enjoy them. Great niece and nephew creative time, she enjoyed it so much. I am tired, but it’s all worth her joy. 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Bad cough, headache, sore throat. She tested negative yesterday, has felt fine. Don’t ask me how that works, I’m just grateful! TV doesn’t work for me, I’m binge reading ;-) old favorites so I don’t have to think ;-) 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Damn, sister. How do we do these things together? Tested positive Wednesday. Probably from flying, got back Saturday. Masked. Wife is fine… avoided this for 5 years and here I am. No fever, though. 🤞🏼🤞🏼 320
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 19/06/2025That’s wonderful! One of those times you say to yourself, “I wish I’d caught that!” ;-) 010

Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 10/05/2025I’m well. Tired but well. Was able to walk a mile and a half today along the headlands. Farthest I’ve been able to walk since 2020. Feels really good to finally be making progress. 110
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Last year someone we walk with in the pool was wearing a white one. She loved it. Told us where to get her one. Saw that person in the grocery store about an hour and a half later, and she had already bought my sweetheart this multi colored one. She wears it everywhere now! 120
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Been missing you too! Been a lot here lately. We’re good though. She’s actually doing better right now. We’re traveling to see friends and family end of the month. Everyone wants time with her while they can enjoy each other. Feel fortunate in our friends! (My sweetheart) 230
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Wife and I got a walk on the headlands today. Was gorgeous. Happy #flowerfridayfamily to you. 💕 130
Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 29/04/2025100% agree. I don’t want to watch or listen. I also don’t like my emotions being jerked around and I control that when reading. 030

Daulphin @daulphin.bsky.social · 08/03/2025Thank you! She’s healing well. She also has dementia, and while still reasonably functional (and very happy) her time sense is skewed. She can’t understand how well and quickly she’s healing. Fortunately her pain is way down! 010
