9. And a vein from my arm...

Mon Nov 13, 2023, 08:01 AM

Nov 2023

is my new heart veins, and a titanium post and ball is my new hip, and some stainless steel netting thingy is my new aorta and some round plastic pieces are my new eye lens. This June will be 72 orbits complete. Carpal Tunnel has taken out my left hand… will be getting that fixed hopefully before the right gets too bad.

Gray hair is only in beard and well..down there. Wrinkles are my badges of the life battles I’ve won.
There are things I can’t do anymore but I enjoyed those things so the memories I have are precious and enough.
I’ve just replaced those with things I can do.

I could complain but the line is too long, plus it does absolutely no good. I’ve spent time in VA hospitals seeing people that had no reason to be joyful but were there smiling, laughing, telling jokes. Not trying to be punny but it gets infectious.

Life is good. Enjoy every day.
