STD

I always moved quickly, thought quickly, and moved fast.  I mentioned to my wife this morning that I am learning to compensate for Alzheimers by stopping and thinking before doing.  She replied, "that would be a great acronym: 'STD' for 'STOP and LOOK before DOING' "

Wanted to share.

Hi Chuck!

Good for you.Glad to see the "fighting" energy in you!

At first glance, I thought STD as in Sexually Transmitted Disease,
however, I discounted that thought almost instantly upon looking at your photo.

No offense, but I just couldn't link you, Alzheimer's and STDs all together
... on this part of the forum, anyways.

Thanks for your input. It would work, as long as one is able to remember
what it stands for in regards to Alheimer's. lol!

Cheers!
Niko
