Do you feel the cold more since your stroke? I know I do & you’ll often find me layered up.

I cartainly do and spend my days layered up also
That makes sense, Ann, because our horses (mitochondria.. the powerhouse of our cells) under-perform. They disconnect after a stroke, become somewhat dysfunctional, lack energy, get tired, get cold, and eventually start to fail. This is where Red Light Therapy and Earthing come in, for me.
Now, please forgive me for the following joke:
A Spanish man went into a department store to buy socks.
He found his way to the menswear department where a young lady offered to help him.
“Quiero calcetines” said the man.
“I’m sorry, I don’t speak Spanish, but we have some very nice suits over here.” said the salesgirl.
“No, no quiero trajes. Quiero calcetines.” said the man.
“Well, these shirts are on sale this week.” offered the salesgirl.
“No, no quiero camisas. Quiero calcetines.” repeated the man.
“Pants? We have some fine pants on this rack.” offered the salesgirl.
“No, no quiero pantalones. Quiero calcetines.” insisted the man.
“These sweaters are top quality.” the salesgirl probed.
“No, no quiero sueter. Quiero calcetines.” said the man.
“Our undershirts are over here.” fumbled the salesgirl, beginning to lose hope.
“No, no quiero camisetas. Quiero calcetines.” the man repeated.
As they passed the underwear counter, the man spotted a display of socks and happily grabbed a pair.
Holding them up he proclaimed “Eso sà que es!”.
Releived, but also confused, the salesgirl asked,
“Sir, if you could spell it, why didn’t you do that in the beginning?”
