My Battle With Hydrocephalus

I have not blogged very much in recent months. I have an excuse. I have been sick and furthermore unable to find a Dr. to diagnose the condition, I have had a continual problem walking, and remembering easy short term memory events. I went from Dr. to Dr. and finally a found a neurologist who made a diagnosis of a condition called Hydrocephalus which is water on the brain. This water drips down into the spine and causes trouble walking, and thinking. That is my problem..It takes a long time to emerge but it is usually curable. After spending a huge part of my life for the last few years as the disease progressed I became more and more desperate to, find a DR. who could treat this disease which is treatable I have spent so much of my  time researching I feel like an expert on Hydrocephalus. I found a Dr, a neurosurgeon who will put cut my skull open and insert a shunt in my brain to drain the damaging fluid from and cut it off from travelling to my spine where it does all the damage.

Hydrocephalus

no goals or objectives. I'm 68 years old and healthy other the having a condition called hydrocephalus which is fluid on the ban. It makes you unable to walk properly, think cognitively, or feel balance. It is terrible to live with. No taking a walk, engaging in fruitful conversation, or enjoy normal short term memory. In fact one of the only ways I can get any piece of mind is to write. Writing gives some meaning and value to  my life. It is one of the only ways I have left to cope with my semblance of a life What do I do? I'm sitting in front of the tv with no life and no purpose. I have nowhere to go and Wed June 7, 2017  Everyone needs validation in their life. It5 can come with a job, a wife, a family, consuming hobbies and many other things. I do not have any of those. I am alone in my own morbidly depressed life.I have 3 wonderful, loving grown children and 5 grandchildren That is not enough to capture my mind for very long. I always come back to this indescribably di

Compulsive Gambler Desperate To Gamble Again After 8 Years Sober

  Compulsive gambler is a 67 year old male. He has not placed a bet in  8 years. He is set up for life. But, only if he does not gamble. He is thinking about giving into the urge.  So, I have been resisting the perpetual urge to start gambling again although I have been clean and sober for over six years  If I gamble my rich, trusting lover who has stuck with me will find out quickly even if I sneak it well.. Also, my kids and few close friends would immediately lose all respect for me and I would lose all trust from everyone else. I would be cutting myself off from the easiest life one could imagine.  I am covered financially by my very rich sugar momma only because I do not gamble. If I do gamble she would cut me off in a second. I would end up broke and living in the gutter. Now, I live in a penthouse and have plenty of money between driving a cab, making money from a promotional business, and getting social security. If I'm short of cash or want anything then all I

I Cannot Sneeze

I Cannot Sneeze A Story by   David Stein   I am afflicted by an unusual condition. I am a 67 year old man who cannot complete a sneeze. There is nothing medically causing the problem. I have not sneezed in six months. I have tried every trick.   I have a weird, unusual, condition. I continually get stuck sneezes. I get the urge to sneeze. I go Ahhh but the Choo will not come. This has been happening almost everyday for about the last eight months. I do occasionally complete a sneeze. It seems I finally sneeze just about the time I am totally out of my mind from not being able to do so.   I have researched this problem for hundreds of hours. No good answers. I have discovered a very rare condition named “Asneezia” that kind of describes my problem. I am sure this condition is psychological. I have not sneezed in the last 5 weeks. I have only sneezed a total of about 5 times in the last eight months. I get the urge to but then I cannot release the sneeze. It is like an
