He rolls the R in retty if that helps, LOL.

sickle vs sickel

Okay, I just have to gripe.  This is at least the FIFTH time I've changed my spelling of the word.  The first couple times I thought I just did a dumb goof, but now it's happened again--after I changed everything. 


Did someone change the spelling when I wasn't looking?  This is SO frustrating!  Yes, I'll make a note of the QA person, but it may not be the same one all these times.  It's not a dig to anyone.  I just want to know how I could've missed this so many times.


While I'm at it, how does everyone type Alzheimer's disease, when used like she has Alzheimer's disease.  Or just, plain Alzheimer's, which is also often dictated.  I've seen it both ways, and would like to know one and for all.


Thanks for the vent and the info!
