@elliottbnewcombjr ....*L* We're obviously a hard habit to kick....;) Please stay.....'diet' if you must, but the loss of any diminishes all....and our numbers contract by our ages anyway....😔 |
tunefuldude you read the title but not the posts. This is round two. Round one I was almost outta here (DPReview was closing at the same time, depressed me), many good people encouraged me to stay, and I did. round two, this revival of the old conversation, I just needed to tell someone that I was getting quite discouraged again. Not leaving, just knew good people responded to this originally. AND, I got to let people know that DPReview did not close. |
asvjerry"'diet' if you must" is good advice. I'm going into the hospital today, testing, see if I qualify for a clinical trial of a new Heart Mitral Valve (and it's less invasive insertion). If yes, keep me and do it. No, then it goes down to a repair job, using clip(s), keep me, do it. In either case, I won't be yapping so readily, and second phase of diet: I usually lose weight when in the hospital or in-patient rehab due to indescribable food. I got an infection in the bone of my foot, went into hospital Halloween 2022. After this and that, I was -34 lbs. Put some back on, recently got rid of some of that. In that year, Covid twice (got it in the hospitals); Pneumonia twice, trial drugs that nearly killed me, carried out on a stretcher, ... Despite all that, I've managed to yap quite a bit. ....................... My son, we call him Rescue Man, worked for 3 rescue squads, EMT for hospital, town and college, travelling educator, now a Fireman. When I was younger, he told me, when they carry the elderly on stretchers, move them from gurney to rolling bed, move again to hospital bed: They call it 'Slinging Lizards'. This time, all these years later, I'm on the gurney, he's there, concerned, I say, I guess I'm a Lizard now. Cracked him up. Donna wasn't laughing. |
