    I’m still playing but not with bands anymore. My fretting hand is as good as it was but my fingerpicking is shot and strumming only works with simple rhythms. After so many years spent improving it is disappointing to be going backwards. Some days are better than others. I should probably practice more.

    Before diagnosis at 63 I slept like a teenager, now I have difficulty sleeping mostly due to leg pain. This, combined with general fatigue means I tend to nap more, usually mid afternoon for an hour or two. If I try and miss the nap I’m tired for the rest of the evening. I’ve decided naps are good.
