Brain Rx (Hopefully)

I dabbled a bit with chess as a teenager but forgot about it when I discovered girls. A friend talked me into a chess.com account in 2021 but I only really got interested and started playing much in the Fall of 2023. My father had full-blown Alzheimer's by the time he was my age so I'm hoping that chess can retard senility. Speed chess is new to me. Add to that the fact that I'm near-blind and have anxiety problems, I make more blunders playing fast than is normal. And I make lots to begin with! But I'm enjoying it.
