    Hi Shannon,so wonderful that your video showed up for me this morning.So nice to see you. Your story is so helpful and spot on! I’m a nurse and I’ve also been a caregiver. It’s such a complex process. I’m grateful that you and Gregg found eachother. A love story for the ages. Please keep taking care of yourself and keep healing🥰

    My good lord, Gregg’s voice and musicianship have been a guiding light since 1970. His voice transcended singing…..it’s a direct link to the voice of his soul. I’m very thankful I was able to see the band several times. Sorry for your loss….and all us brothers out here miss him too.

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. The Allma Brothers are my alltime favorite band. I've seen them and all the variations many times starting in 1979. I had the good fortune of meeting Gregg in June of 2016, after his concert in Rochester, NY. I was sitting next to a man who was a roadie for them 73-76 , who they called Gyro he had an extra backstage pass. We were met by his friend Chank and brought up to the Green room to meet him .Gregg immediately recognized Gyro and was very happy to see him again after many years. I introduced myself and we talked about 20 minutes about mostly small stuff. He was very cool and kind . I will nevet forget it! Peace!

    My wife and I were caregivers for my mom and I can relate to the stress and pain that comes with the commitment. We are huge fans and you are a great person for being there.

    My wife and i were plant based for a few years and after not seeing the health results we were told we should be have and being sick weak and frail. I was pulling my back out all the time, loosing weight, and sick once a month. One day we had some compounding information lead us to give up plant based and go lion diet/carnivore. High fat high protein low carb most no carb or sugar. Its been a couple of years now and our health mentally and physically was restored on this diet. My mom went carnivore about 3 months after we did and she got off of all her meds after a few months. Thanks to dr ken berry and dr Paul salindino and other testimonies of thousands that we researched. Plants can be good medicine but the human body wasn't designed for must of us to live on plants. RIP Greg Allman. Thank you for the story.

      We also have been alcohol free for almost 5 years and have developed an insane sweet tooth in place of not drinking. We haven't really battled alcohol since we quit. Its the sweets. The brain doesn't know the difference between processing alcohol or sugar. Its all one in the same. So removing the booze was easy. Removing the sugar is what we actually did mostly and that addiction is way harder to break. We fight the urge for sweets and never think about booze. We are on the journey of higher consciousness and spirituality which we have found ways to have the strength to resist the sweets. We consume a small fraction of what most Americans consume daily. It has helped us tremendously.

    As my dad laid dying from cancer. He wasn't chainstoking. He could respond to me. I asked his permission before I rubbed his feet. It was the only thing I could do for him was rub his feet to comfort him. I am so glad I could serve him at the end.

    These testimonies are really beautiful. I was my moms caregiver for my mom she had stage 4 breast cancer. I wish I would have listened to this back then. There's were some stressful emotional moments as you know ❤❤

    I took care of my aunt with dementia til she passed away. I did her makeup and hair at the funeral home. It took me years to bounce back from all that. What you are doing/saying here will help so many. Gregg Allman was my favorite singer, I saw the ABB so many times. We saw you love him to the end. Your words will help so many who struggle thru the caregiving and then later the all consuming grief. You are so lovely and your words are so healing. Keep going, we need you and so many need to hear these things. Sending you much peace and love.

    Bless you for staying with your mate in the time of need. My wife decided that "for sickness and in health" wasn't for her and bailed on me an left me with the kids to go find a new mate. It was unfathomable, but my kids stepped up and I teach them to do the right thing in spite of what their mother did.

    I’m so sorry that you are not experiencing daily life with your beloved husband. Sharing the reality as much as you have about caring for him is opening up to us a fragile & private space. We send love also! He is and always will be special as a musician and a man who was so strong. What a lovely lady you are. God bless you. Anna

    Sending love back to you Shannon! I can especially appreciate your comments in regards to caregiving, thank you for that. I am sure this will help many and also help some understand more about you. So often just a written word does not resonate as well as seeing and hearing does so I'm glad you have added the video. 💖 You have my full support always.

    I totally can understand this because I was caring for several people and one of them was my special needs son who required 24-hour care and I didn't trust anybody else to take care of him. And I have literally slept for over 8 years. All I do is sleep and practice basically, and learn to care for myself. My situation is a little bit different because my son is still here, it's just that I imploded it's like I woke up one day and saw the truth and couldn't do it anymore. There was not much left of me... And I was a huge people pleaser because that's how I survived in the environment I was raised in. So automatically that's what I was attracted to. I was attracted to the same sickness because that made my own sickness comfortable. And In situations like that I could never thrive. I'm still learning that I'm important too. Thank you for this 🎹✨. Good Luck💪🏼🙏🏼

    I was in shock how my life stopped and it was all my mom . I remember telling a friend of hers this is crazy I can't even leave the house I'm at her side every minute. I would lose patience she said we'll that's what mons lives are like . I'm thinking yes and no I'm watching my mom die. I was numb for months. I was stuck for a few years I drove past her old house and went to the cemetery every day.

    As a nurse I can say that the body keeps score. Take care of number one so you can take care of your family. As a critical care nurse, I can recall pouring my energy into my patients and family’s that when I needed it I found myself empty and had a mini breakdown. I learned to make sure I kept some of that in reserve for myself. I too developed PTSD after a serious accident and I am still trying to unlock the secrets. Did you realize you called Duane Gregory? Toward the end when you talked about memorizing his medications

    I have the same issue with my health that Greg lived with,last time I ever meditated was back in high school, I would put an album on the turntable,jimmy or canned heat fried hocky boogie lay back and enter the place between sleep and awake, I was always aware that you can’t meditate your way out of a thinking box,which is what the brain is, and haven’t ever seen a need for it since ,does nothing for you unless you want to believe it does,why would you meditate right after sleeping,a brain doesn’t need that nothingness to start your day, you know how the lights come on in the supermarket, not all of lights come up at the same time,that’s what your brain is like waking up,sparks off different areas until your fully awake,better off sleeping the 20 minutes, fighting consciousness with meditation,is a joke,especially when you get older and can’t sleep that well anyway,what ever works for you is ok,but meditation is a belief system,once my mind realized it, I couldn’t do it anymore.

    Can you make tattertot hotdish healthy 😅that's a Midwest comfort food

    • @shannonallman7978
      @shannonallman7978  26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I looked up the recipe and honestly, it's a pretty nutrient dense dish with the beef, garlic, peas, and protein-rich cheese! You COULD replace the tater tots with potatoes that haven't been fried, but the tater tots make it! I would eat it as-is and just save it for those comfort food days! For example, when I made Gregory's favorite shepherd's pie, it still had all the ingredients it always had (butter, potato, cheese, beef, etc.) but I added peas and carrots to it to get some antioxidants and nutrients in there.
