Scott and I went to pick up two things at CVS - Lantus - slo acting insulin - and Tachrylimus, antirejection med.
Now tomorrow many folks will attend our Kidneyversary.
Note to Robert H Lokoff: Rob I sure wish you could come. Good lord, man, why did you have to die. He and I were good buddies. His impulsivity was one thing that did him in.
I MISS YOU!
Wonder if there was an obit for him.

Where will everyone sleep?
I will either sleep in my own bed or go to Scott's.
Someone will sleep in the family room on Aunt Ethel's couch. Our niece Niki gave us inflatable beds that we can use.
Am listening to WRTI-FM - Toccata in E Minor by Bach - am trying to stretch my brain since my cognition is impaired. Last night on PBS there was a memory show with this one man who discovered the neuroplasticity of the brain.
He knows what each part of the brain is responsible for.
Ashleigh Banford was the host.
His name was something like Michael Merzenich. Yes, that is it.

The BrainHQ brain-training program represents the culmination of 30 years of research in neurological science and related medicine. It was designed by an international team of neuroscientists, led by Michael Merzenich—a professor emeritus in neurophysiology, member of the National Academy of Sciences, co-inventor of the cochlear implant, and Kavli Prize laureate.
In great detail, last night, they described the cochlear implant and how it worked. One woman who had lost her hearing in an accident said, Why this is just the way I used to hear ! She was so delighted.
And of course a deaf man won best supporting actor at the Academies thother night. We did have two deaf folks in ND but I dunno what happened to them.
And of course in the film/book The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, Alan Arkin played a lonely deaf man who couldn't take it any more.
Carson McCullers died in Nyack NY.
