This is a time of the year of happiness and joy. I do not feel this year!
My year in my neighborhood has given me great sadness to the joy of others. i have looked back at my neighborhood and have seen some ugly hurtful situations. I use to sit on my porch and say HI to everyone but the hurtful actions have turned that into no fun :-( I was always taught "turn the other heck" or "laugh it off" or "learn to ignore". As you age, you should not be even thinking those things because your peers are to be beyond that age of bully, abuse, critical, making fun of you, ignore you or all those negative attributes. I am sensitive; probably, yes I am but I keep it hidden as any professional or mature person most of the time. Oh, I could list the issues but I do not wat to point fingers. I just hope my 2023 is a better year with God's Blessings and Strength. It is not everyday; you truly meet someone that lives in a neighborhood that they love to find so many who are hurtful. We have better character in this community and the best place beyond some of our peers. I hope everyone sees that this Holiday and the coming year to enjoy everyone and everything with Happiness - 2023. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1tq4lWF1RWzlUhpDNdzRXM

https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1480710709062589 WONDERING HOW MY FRIENDS ARE DOING..
I HAVE BEEN IN A HURRICANE; IT DID NOT BOTHER ME DUE TO THE WIND SOUND JUST KEPT BLOWING AND BLOWING. I WAS NOT CLOSE ENOUGH TO GET FLOODED BUT CLOSE ENOUGH FOR WIND SOUNDS AND RAIN. RAIN WAS FLYING BY AND I FELL ASLEEP. THE NEXT DAY THE NEIGHBORHOOD STARTED BRINGING OUT GRILLS AND EVERYONE BROUGHT THEIR FOOD TO GRILL DUE TO THE LIGHTS WERE OUT. THE FREEZER FOOD WOULD NOT BE GOOD IN A DAY OR TWO. OF COURSE, THERE WAS WIND DAMAGE AT A NEIGHBORS HOUSE. I WAS ON THE BOARD THEN AND HAD TO GO REVIEW THE PLACE WHICH IS CALLED HOA RESPONSIBILITIES. IT WAS A BLESSING HE WAS AT WORK THAT NIGHT BEFORE OR THE TREE WOULD HAVE WENT THRU HIS MASTER BEDROOM ON THE FIRST FLOOR THROUGH THE SECOND. WHAT WAS SCARY WAS GOING TO THE GROCERY DAYS LATER. THERE WAS NO LIGHTS. THERE WAS VERY LITTLE FOOD DUE TO THE TRUCKS COULD NOT GET TO OUR COMMUNITY DUE TO DOWN ELECTRIC LINES AND TREES. IT LOOKED LIKE A WAR ZONE. ABSOLUTELY, DEVASTATING TO SO MANY PEOPLE IN MILES AROUND THE CITY. OUR LIGHTS WERE FINALLY ON THAT DAY AT MY LOCATION, BUT AS I DROVE UP THERE NO TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND CARS LINED UP FOR 2 MILES TO GET GASOLINE. IF IT WAS TOTAL ELECTRIC WITH 4 OR MORE DAYS WITHOUT ELECTRICITY, HOW LONG WOULD YOUR BATTERY LAST? HOW FAR COULD YOU GO ON TOTAL ELECTRIC? I KNEW CO-WORKERS THAT DID NOT HAVE ELECTRICITY FOR WEEKS TO MONTHS. THEY WERE SHOWERING AT WORK. WE BOUGHT COOKED FOOD SO THEY WOULD HAVE SOMETHING TO TAKE HOME FOR THEM. SO I AM THINKING OF FLORIDA TODAY AS I DO ANYDAY WHEN THIS HAPPENS OR IN ANY OTHER STATE, I WOULD IF I WOULD WANT TO LIVE IN THAT CONDITION? WHERE I LIVE NOW, MOTHER NATURE HAS TORNADOS. I AM USE TO THEM AND I REALLY SAY OK; LET'S GO TO THE BASEMENT. PRAYERS FOR ALL WHO HAVE EVER BEEN IN THE PATH OF HURRICANES, TORNADOES, AND MANY OTHER NATURAL EVENT THAT CAUSES US TO BE TOTALLY FRIGHTEN OR LOST OF LIVES AND BELONGINGS. GOOD NITE! GOD BLESS PEACHING AROUND DEB WELL, WELL! GOODNESS ME!
I can tell you life has been harder for me; dealing with the pain I have experience!!!! I use to do Art Shows. Set up tents, etc. Oui! no more too hard. now, I thought have an event at a restaurant that provides the food with be easy peasy.... My word is peasy. I do not think peasy is a word; it is just me. Well, it is not! People can make it complicated more than my sickness or ills; I have. I enjoy helping people and I heard about a Parkinson case today. I will send them a link. Now, I can not continue without purchases and I have so much more jewelry and hat bands to put on this site. I can not wait for you to see! I will admit mine is not for everyone but you have to order and see it. Contact me if I am close by and we can meet for you to see my styles. Oh, They are repeated by others over the years. Getting to the jewelry there is a woman in my neighborhood that can put my jewelry looking like "Oh, that is a wonderful piece, but Deborah Marie look at hers!" I wish she would sell on my store!!!! We would see how it goes Pewter is going to hung at a store. Yahoo! on that! I said Yahoo before there was a Yahoo!... Now, back to the Foundation and Event there is a reason why there are event people but you can get them hired. They are too busy. All I can say is what the ...... I guess it is big $$$ here in this area. I never knew this even though I knew about Louisville having a large facility that had or has regular trade shows. So my poor little thing is left to me, I have a brain injury and I have an assistant to Help! I have a media person, but really this is worst than a putting up a tent and selling. Not the restaurant, it is the logistics that I have lost ... Well, it will work out! it will work out! I can not worry; It will work out! God Bless - Take care of yourself and Peach around with me! ;_) Deb
I tried the full class of German at UofL in Louisville. My brain got tired and had to quit. It is hard for a type a personality to quit. I also enjoy changing my pictures into something unique at the moment in time. The 3rd picture is a picture on a choker leather and sterling silver that swing. The last picture is the road of my life It seems to have been long ever changing for the good but very hard to get there. When you come from poverty and latch key child to success or success in my eyes from those terribly hungry days or very lonely days then you have walked in my shoes.
I keep trying; I wanted to have a party for Gemassist Brain Awareness Foundation but I am beginning to think that people think that it is not a party. I always thought free food and drink is a party and a networking and social gathering, but maybe not. Peaching Around to the next day! God Bless and Love Deborah Marie Well, it is time to introduce Gemassist to Kentucky. It is a real complicated issue when you have had a stroke with a brain injury.
as a Project Manager. I would have had the invitees notified, restaurant set- up finished and do not forget totally confirmed date. I got the restaurant; I got the $$$ but now I need to make the guess list. I need to call contacts. i need my media person to make a simple flyer and order simple gifts Now IT site management need to finish the site so I can complete all the other task. The bank log in needs to be confirmed and verified to add all collected money. assistant assistant that is my Left hemisphere because I can not complete these task without her, Hey! Mallory are you ready!!!! thank goodNESS!!! she is here tomorrow to complete these task with me Geez! Why do I do this to myself????? it is a good cause. I know I have been lucky and want to help others that is my Pay IT Forward til my life can not do this anymore. I am blessed and want to bless you!!!! all the best have a great day!! Deborah Marie - peaching around My story is simple and short but lifelong. I started having disfigurement in my face and no one knew what it was. I saw several neurologists and finally it diabetic seizures. I was put on late adult seizure meds for almost 1.5years. I got terribly worse. I went to John Hopkins in Baltimore MD, and I was there for 1 hours. The doctor checked my neuro system and then he said, “you have hemiplegic migraines”. He wrote up info and said Atlanta doctors should know how to treat this rare migraine. It is not pretty if you look it up. CDC: rare diseases Came home and went to a migraine specialist, he was doing testing on this migraine, and I did not know he was not using solumedrol around my head. He hit my spinal below around C1-C2 with this test medication and I got dysfunctional neurology. I look like I had palsy and my right side of my body moved without me. I could not see white light out of my right eye. My brain was fuzzy. My sisters cried and some could not see me. It was so bad. My best friend, Linda, was overwhelmed with tears and distress. Main objective was to get me to Shepherd Center Hospital on Peachtree St., Atlanta, GA. I met several doctors due to the weird happening Dr. Darryl L Kaelin stepped up to the plate to help me. I was a great challenge. I went through Pathways at Shepherd Center in Atlanta, GA; I cried like a baby and had no clue why I could not t do the things I used to do. Lost my job, my husband became my provider. Dr. Darryl L Kaelin finally put a mixture of drugs and off I went to life somewhat. Doing the best, I could. He taught me about the brain and about neuroplasticity. My psychologist was appalled and sent me to Emory for a cognitive test. It lasted 2 days. She immediately requested disability and told me to make a will with the health care advisor to plan decisions if I went into a coma. I stayed in shock I believe for 3 years. My husband started having to take me to all his job sites and I started with the help of others by hiring people who would learn how to help me be as independent as possible when he was not around. Dr. Darryl L. Kaelin saved my life and he moved to UofL Healthcare Frazier Rehabilitation Institute and that is where I go now in Louisville, KY for treatment and follow ups. I actually moved here to be at this institute so I can have a better life than the treatments I was getting in Atlanta, GA I thought everything was over, but it was not; my trigeminal nerve on the right side where I had the migraine was beginning to be very painful in 2016. The pain increased till suicide seemed to be the answer; I believe in God, and it did not happen. After being rejected by Emory in my own hometown and Mayo Clinic; I kept searching if I wanted to live a somewhat normal life. Brain Expert, Dr Robinson in Atlanta GA looked at my film on a bad day and said “I can try something and let’s hope it works”. I was immediately signed up for Gamma Knife to get rid of the right side Trigeminal Neuralgia. It Worked! Now, left hemisphere damage and right hemisphere damage has gone through neuroplasticity. I have other neurological issues, and age-related issues. No matter how many years, this is a hard life not having the brain you once had; life goes on. You stay optimistic and you have failures, it is your life and make the best of it. Years later, I started getting right facial pain. Oh, how horrible that pain can be and the hemiplegic migraine with facial pain the treatment was not lasting long the full 3 months. Now, I am trying something else that is also giving me some relief. Hope it works for a few years or more. Live, Laugh and Love Deb Krupp
All 3 of the photo graphs are the Blue Danube in Germany. I have made various colors of it so
You can decide which you like. If you think about life everyday is a different color or moment. A moment of memory about actions of yesterday that helps you become today at this moment. Much Love, good health and happiness Deborah Marie
I just can not believe that ER and hospital visits are so complicated for brain injury patients.
We do not have fast communication that is expected. We have very unknown reaction and fear from the processing of information. Especially when doctors and nurses are not capable of expressing themselves in their own atmosphere. There are classes for bed side manners I am sure so take them. I hope to help in the future to clear up some of these mistakes. Have a lovely day! Peaching Around - Deborah Marie On the May 19th just do not know if I would be.
I have been blessed with a TBI and times it is hard to know "how sick I am" I have also been blessed with a Hemiplegic Migraine that is very interesting trip!!! There times when I go to bed at night and I really do not know if I am going to wake up. There are other ills due to living out of the country and not being able to get a specialist even though tax dollars were paid. We are lucky here that there is help if you really look for it. Yes, help if you really look for it.\ it is hard to look; it is frustrating to look but do it. Ask questions to other people to get help? Did you ever question again later - why?
Well this day and age in time of opinions and government values of allowing people not to work A time when you get a dangerous disease and fight for your life. Brain injury patients was not put at the top of the list but considered normal and wait Well, I get my daily help for brain injury
Researching more programs. All the best! Hey!
My birthday is always at brain awareness week. Something tells me it was meant to be. I have a lot to say but I am just going to share pic. But it is blank. Well got to fit that!!!! Haha!!! While you sometimes do not have health problems beyond your brain injury.
There are some of us that do. Brain Injury (TBI or ABI) has particular functions to each brain. Yes! I believe Severe concussions come back! Mine did at 60 years of age! Wow! Trigeminal Nerve cane into my life like the most painful painful experience. It is hard to explain how bad the nerve comes back. Here are some pictures from Wiki that I retrieved. The blue is the major section and that is a bear that hurts till you can not think anymore. I had mine Gamma Knife out by The Brain Expert in Atlanta, GA.
Well, I have a media person that has updated my Instagram @gemassistfoundation and linked to Facebook. It is sooo unbelievable the difference.
She is an Artist but also a computer wiz.... StudioNatk https://www.studionatk.com/ I do not write as much as you I ought to on my Blog but it is really difficult to have free time.
Since my brain injury, I do not feel pain as others and I can get real sick and not know it till I am in an ER or in the Dr office every few days.. You have said it better than I - David Grant
I believe why you do not hear about Brain Injury. People are afraid it might happen to them. Do you know I have had people tell me that they would rather give to animals than to help Brain Injury patients help? You have the green ribbon; I made this design to get away from the ribbon and people realize when you wear this symbol that You are aware.
