Thank you, Victor. I have had a few of these instances myself and I am old, but my husband lives with it most days even with meds to help. Sara K

John, remind me about love. LOL..We will soon be married 63 years. I'm afraid that if I were to try to get a spark going under the kindling, it would be so old, dry, and crackling it would explode. Sara K

SV, I don't remember my parents or my husband's parents complaining about being dizzy, but I had one aunt that did. I wonder why it is so prevalent today. Thanks for the visit and nice review. Sara K
