Wednesday, January 8, 2020 - I Blend in with the Crowd

Almost exactly six years ago, while writing about my mom and her dementia, I wrote on this blog "Nothing would make me happier than to be a normal, average guy that blends in with the crowd. That would be fabulous, and when I get there again, which I will, I will embrace it as sweetly as I do my Mom."

My mom passed away about 4 months after that post.  Today, I embrace my normalcy just as sweetly as I hoped, and I embrace the memory of my mom even more.  

UPDATE:  I am having trouble with Blogger when responding to comments!  The following is a response to Unknowns comment to this post:

Hi Unknown!  This is Dave, but for some reason if I try to reply it won't work.  Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!  I have a lot to say about NMT, but the short version is I think it is BS.  Here's a discussion about 6 years ago, including a discussion with Dan, the big proponent back then of MW, or "moisturizer withdrawal".  He has since taken back his claim and says that MW does not speed healing.
