It seems to work for this remarkable guy!πŸ€—

I think we are remarkable too, since we often feel cut off at the knee and yet we push through out of sheer will.

Happy halloween to all of us and enjoy this "treat."

Members warmly connected over the joy and nostalgia of Halloween celebrations, with many sharing how dressing up brings fun and a welcome distraction from health challenges. Several members described their creative costumes over the years, from homemade witch outfits to a hand-painted Sunmaid Raisins box, while others reflected on how traditions have changed due to safety concerns or aging into quieter neighborhoods with fewer trick-or-treaters. A recurring theme was the healing power of making others laugh, staying playful despite chronic illness, and finding moments of lighthearted connection even when energy is limited.

I still dress up as a witch. It gives the kids a kick to get a trick along with the treats. This year one little girl came running across the lawn screaming "I'm a witch too!" Lol. We decorated with lots of skull-headed ghosts and spiders so the kids would know in advance that we celebrate Halloween since so many people in our neighborhood don't bother. I just loved it as a kid and have continued in my own minor way since FMS took over. But when I was in my 30s and 30s I went overboard with parties. My favorite costume I made was the Sunmaid Raisins box. I dressed as the maiden and hand painted the box, sticking my head through the bottom of the sun. I won that contest!

Halloween not like it use to be when I was kid. My youngest daughter is 44 and she has never been trick or treating because when she was young had too many bad people putting poison and other things in candy. No children go trick or treat except certain neighborhoodsand mall. Police are there also.

Bewitching. Amazing. A girl after my heart. I live in a 55+ community and we had a blast at our party.
