Well, if you must know I make some extra cash by writing or translating for certain companies or enterprises. By 10:00 a.m. tomorrow I have to have an English translation of a "DISCLAIMER" for a porn web site. No joke! Oh well, these are the things I do to make a living and be able to take care of my DAD.
In any case the real funny thing about tonight is that after I put my DAD to bed and I was kind of lost in an HBO movie, my pop woke up asking me for an Alka Seltzer. Obviously, he had some tummy problems. Well, I missed out on calculating our inventory of Alka Seltzer and I had none to be found. Fortunately, I remembered what my MOM did in similar circumstances. CARBONATO, Arm & Hammer Baking Soda!!! Yes! One teaspoon of the magic powder, dissolved in a glass of lukewarm water did the trick! After three consecutive burps; my DAD was like new and back in bed. He was happier than ever; so was I. Anyway, I had a piece of leftover Thanksgiving apple pie and I am like new. I may actually sleep tonight.

Ricardo, I came across your blog on the ALZ forums, and it's been so refreshing to see your sense of humor. Thanks for these postings. They remind me so much of my family and what we're going through.
Ric,
I reposted for you outside the "Who Am I" thread (on Alz. Assoc.) as it will get more views in its own thread. More will see that you recently joined.
Also want to mention ADcaregiver.com. It was started by a man named Aitan who is caring for his Grandma. It is a nice place with a nice group of folks.
Hey Ricky,
My mom was just trying to get me to take Arm & Hammer over the weekend too!
