Michael,
Nice to hear of your progress. Hope springs eternal! Nice to follow Barry's and your progress as John progresses along the same time frame. I wish he would get on this forum but he tends to go things alone. I think he likes me to update him though on how you are doing. (He's a bit competitive being a basketball coach and I use you guys to motivate him - "Michael's trying this or Barry's trying that!" We are going for almost daily walks and he is starting to eat more. Sounds like your depression is easing up a bit with that humor of yours. I expect it will ebb and flow as you guys and we caregivers process what just happened to our lives. It's hard to go on to the next chapter of a book when we feel we haven't finished the previous one. But I guess life is made up of a lot of chapters.
Take care of yourself and Seth,
Janet
