Today, I made it to age 76.

[murielm99]

I am in remission from lung cancer. I have a blood clot on my lung. I have compression fractures in my spine, caused by osteoporosis, and serious shortness of breath after covid. I have gained thirty pounds after a period of forced inactivity from my health issues.

I am lining these things up, and defeating them one by one. Ask me about them when I am 86 and still posting on DU.

1. wishing you a very Happy Birthday!

you're not just defeating them, you are kicking ass!

3. Thank you.

Coming from you, anything about ass-kicking is complimentary.

11. I think you're going to be at these things just based on orneriness..

I'll be 88 then; Kamala will be the former Prez, and Walz or Whitmer or Buttigieg will be in the Oval Office.
