I need to initiate a dialog. →[More:] I am beginning to question my ability to remain independent, and I am having difficulty working out solutions because my higher organization skills are pretty much gone.

Two recent cases: Standing at a crosswalk, the signal changed from red to white. By the time I worked out that I should cross, the signal was flashing. I also often cross streets too slow before the green light in the other direction.

I have been using a chore sheet for things like floors, dishes and prescriptions, but this week I added "take shower" and "brush teeth". This serves not only as a necessary reminder, but also a record as I cannot always remember if I had or not the day before.

Forget cash management. That's a disaster. Also, I stopped driving for good some time ago.

I am stranded in Fresno and I need to leave now that the heat has broken because summers here make me sicker. However, I know no one here but my doctors, who I will see the first week of October. Their help in this is pretty limited anyway.

Does anybody have any experience with this?
