Today, I made it to age 76. [View all]

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.
