@DoodleNessa @Fur1Of Good to hear you are getting better. And at least you woke your family up to let you out so there was no accident in the house(family has to look on the positive side)

It's been a crazy few weeks, but I am on the mend. You'll be happy to know that I have returned to my old self " Master Counter-Surfer" 😁 The larger dose of steroid has me doing crazy stuff.... Last night I woke up at 3am and woke everyone up because I had to poop 🤷‍♀️

@sampson_dog Very interesting. You have done so much since your injury that I and I am sure others, never realized you were continuing to suffer especially eye difficulty. Thank you for such information. I really appreciate it👍

Mom is currently going through an intense process of tests and therapies that will take months. People often imagine therapy as something that makes you immediately feel better, or strengthen muscles. Vestibular and vision therapy after long-term post-concussive syndrome (PCS) can feel very different. Vestibular therapy helps recalibrate balance, motion processing, and how the brain interprets movement and spatial orientation. Vision therapy helps retrain convergence and eye coordination when the eyes are no longer working together efficiently. But during that process, symptoms are often intentionally triggered so the brain can begin learning new patterns again. That can mean: ➡️Dizziness. ➡️Confusion. ➡️Visual disorientation. ➡️Brain fatigue that feels crushing. ➡️Slower language processing. ➡️Difficulty filtering environments, noise, movement, or conversation. Sometimes it can feel like your brain is “short-circuiting” halfway through the day simply from trying to process the world around you. And then you do it again. Several times a week. What many people do not realize is that this can apply even to a head injury that happened 20 years ago. When a significant concussion or brain injury goes untreated for years, the brain often develops deeply ingrained compensatory patterns just to get through daily life. Therapy can be exhausting because the nervous system is being asked to relearn functions it has struggled to regulate for decades. And recovery is rarely linear. Some therapy days feel productive. Others can temporarily exacerbate symptoms for hours—or even days afterward—as the brain works to adapt. But the goal is not perfection. The hope is that over time: ➡️Balance becomes more reliable. ➡️Visual processing becomes less exhausting. ➡️Greater tolerance for busy environments. ➡️Cognitive endurance improves. The hope is that the “cost” of basic daily functioning becomes lower. Therapy does not erase the injury. It improves capacity, control, endurance, and quality of life. ➡️Improved regulation, improved endurance, improved quality of life, and greater independence. The outcome is usually not framed as “curing” a 20-year-old injury. For many people like Mom with PCS, progress is measured in things others may never notice: ➡️Being able to tolerate an airport longer, recover. ➡️Faster after overload, read without severe fatigue. ➡️Navigate crowds more safely, or simply make it through the day with a little more stability than before. Importantly, many people like Mom, with chronic PCS develop extraordinary adaptive skills over time. They become highly strategic, resilient, and systems-oriented because they have had to navigate the world differently for years. Therapy may help reduce the neurological burden they have been carrying alone. Even decades later, meaningful improvement is still possible. The process can still be frustrating. Some symptoms may persist. Some deficits may remain lifelong. That hope is real. It is just usually measured in function, stability, and regained capacity rather than a complete erasure of symptoms. Progress is hard won. #BrainInjury #PostConcussiveSyndrome #VestibularTherapy #Neurorehabilitation #Neurodiversity #Accessibilit

@shanerkidwell Do you think people in Washington State will continue voting Democrat when they hear about this?

Washington just became the first state in U.S. history to terminate a public employee pension plan. The plan belongs to retired police officers and firefighters. LEOFF Plan 1 was 160% funded as of June 2024 per the state's own actuarial valuation. It had not required a single contribution in 25 years. By 2029 it was projected to reach 200% funded with a $4.3 billion surplus. The legislature terminated the plan, swept $3.9 billion, and is using $880 million of it to refill a rainy day fund it already drained to cover a deficit it created. Days ago, retired first responders including former Congressman Dave Reichert sued the state to stop it. The bill passed the House 55-39 and was advanced out of Appropriations without a public hearing. Every yes vote was a Democrat. The governor signed it in April. I publish the full research and sourced breakdowns on Substack every week. Search Shane Kidwell if you want the deeper dive. I sacrificed my body and a good chunk of my life for our state, they committed to providing a benefit for me and raided it. @GovBobFerguson @komonews @KIRO7Seattle @KING5Seattle @fox13seattle @seattletimes

I catch about 95% of treats despite having a human that has horrible aim and the throwing skills of a drunken sloth wearing mittens. But I wasn't always this good. Treats would bounce off my head, or I would miss them completely and have to go chasing them all over the place. Sometimes I'd even end up standing on one and not able to find it under my paw! It took a long time to develop mouth eye coordination, and to learn how to track them as they moved in the air. It took practice. So if you're struggling with something and it feels like you're never going to get it, don't just give up. Keep trying. Start small and practice the basics. Eventually you will get better. You might never be able to catch the treats that are thrown high and far, but you're going to be able to catch some of them. If you give up, you're never going to catch any. And who knows, maybe if you practice hard enough long enough, you might even be able to catch those really hard ones one day! #AdviceFromADog 🎥 The treat catch

Mourners arrive at the Hollywood Forever cemetery for the funeral of Larry Vein, a leader in Pacific Palisades after the #PalisadesFire who committed suicide last week. Feels like the whole community gathered to mourn and pay respects to an optimistic spirit that finally broke.

@KariLake Let’s hope President Trump heard about this! Maybe he can have the singer to the White House, at least to shake his hand!

🚨Washington DC🚨 Singing the National Anthem not allowed at Washington DC‘s Lincoln Memorial?? Video shows a security officer at the Lincoln Memorial ordering a patriot and professional opera singer to stop singing the National Anthem. Hugo Castillo was just about to sing, “O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave,” when Hugo says the officer told him to stop singing and escorted him away. I visit this memorial often and I WISH I would encounter a patriot like Hugo singing our national anthem while there 🇺🇸 Let’s focus on curbing real crime. Keep singing, Hugo🇺🇸🙌

@Real_RobN @StrangeFunnies Spencer Pratt would be a great mayor. He needs to also look the part. It’s hard to take him serious sitting slumped over in a sloppy tee shirt and baseball cap.

Here it is: The Internal Revenue Service has confirmed that Gavin Newsom is running a criminal enterprise. Spencer Pratt met with criminal investigators at IRS——$800 million given as aid for the Pacific Palisades and Los Angeles fire victims never reached the victims — not a single dollar —while @CAgovernor has his Section 8 secured through theft. Where is the U.S. Attorney General?

@Bhaga1Bhagat @Real_RobN Because of his tech backers and crazy rich old ladies who love him. Don’t forget the young college age people who think he is so great. Every lawyer in Ca will vote for him or they will never be a judge

We have a Montana sheep rancher friend who is retiring. She has a few hundred lbs of really nice Cormo wool I think we are gonna buy and make baby blankets and some other stuff out of. Made one sample blanket It's really soft, machine washable/dryable, and not scratchy at all. Do you think this is a good plan?

Several have asked how Winnie is doing — and she is doing outstanding and is nursing on schedule with her bucket blend of milk, yogurt, and oats, etc. She is also getting more comfortable each day with the other horses on the farm and has now been introduced to Daisy, Kait, and Shep. We will post a video update of her progress soon🐴
