That's a big list of health issues, Pink lady. My heart goes out to you. I hope you are getting good care from your GP and, where necessary, consultants. Have you been referred to a Memory Clinic for your memory issues?

Do you sing? You can help your brain with singing. Creates neural pathways. If you cannot read music, listen to music you like and try to sing along. Do not care how you yourself sound. Just try to replicate what you hear. This will have an effect on the rest of your body, even when you cannot see very well.

Massage your own feet. Use a plantar fasccitis foot roller. Works on nerves in feet and legs.

Don't worry about weight. Just concentrate on whatever vegetables you are allowed to have. Try to get some protein every day. Put a bunch of choices in front of you that are good and then choose among them. Feel sorry for the ones you did not choose and choose them next. Try to feel things like wind, air, heat cold textures, smoothness, take time to smell. Close you eyes and describe your surrounding to yourself. Lir down on the other side and in the other direction. Hug something soft. Talk out loud and impress your voice on the world. You have riches.
Thankyou , my husband goes Mad when I I got which is all the time ,Problem is I only ever sing same line over &I over, , I have great problems trying to Remember not to sing , it drives me nuts, I often hear , oh you sound nice dear &I I cringe as I am unaware I am at it again get. Oh Dear!. The rest of what you have written is really good , one of my loves in life is nice cold air & lcey cold water , yummy . I forgot to add last post , that I find These Couleing book take me to a deep sense of relaxation , Do you have DN? Thanks.
