"Yes, it's Superman - strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Superman - who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel with his bare hands, and who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights the never ending battle for Truth, Justice and the American Way."
Yes, Bob, alias Superman, is alive and going strong. His medication for his memory is doing remarkable things. He's almost back to normal. It's wonderful. He still has a little short-term memory loss but the big things he seems to remember. His vision is still an issue but I think it's better also. At least it seems so. He's cooking out on the grill, he's helping around the house and trying to do projects. WOW!!! Right now, we are blessed - life is good. In fact, Clark Kent is showing up now and then. You know, the sweet old Bob (I mean Clark). The really sweet man, I fell in love with last summer. But who always thought he was Superman (in disguise of course) and nothing could ever harm him.
Now we still have our moments, where I don't know what he remembers and what he doesn't and he gets irritated with me for "telling him what to do." But Lois is doing OK, too. My patience is better than it used to be...I guess it had to get better huh?
So, I'm reporting good things. I know life is full of surprises and unforeseen events, so I'm living in the moment. Superman is living in the moment and right now he is "faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound." I'm sorry if that reference just goes over some people's heads like a flash but us Baby Boomers know what I mean.
I thank God every day and since I've given it all up to him and I have stopped worrying on a minute to minute basis, things are good. That's just about all - THINGS ARE GOOD RIGHT NOW!!!
