Busy minds and bodies - help take away the blues.

I send you my empathy and hope you can get on your bike for a short ride or two, and as you feel better, longer ones. Love and peace,

Spasms, pain and sufferings, the inequalities professing themselves again, and sheep are shaved and shorn, finally put out to pasture to die. Good news is that you are here to spit in the face of death. Modern medicine is a miracle when you can afford it it is another. This verse you write is full of might, and I wish you the best in your fight, the cure is not out of sight, just going for the highest price. So there Ed, there is no more to said, so glad you are not finished yet! -- starman

We all gradually come apart at the seams. I feel your pain, especially the leg spasms that kept me up last night from sleep for two hours. At least I don't have sugar dissolving my essential organs.

I'm not going to give you advice as to what to do except to say that there may be ways you can alleviate that pain. You are much too young to be going through it.

I have helped support a few surgeons but nothing as bad as you have experienced. Old age for some is not what it cracked up to be.

seems like the seams
only seem like they are being rent.
The best part of every day for me
Is waking up above ground.
coolest thing to be found
you need to look around
you ain't gone yet

I hear you loud and clear, Ed. I, also have old age problems, but nothing as severe as you have had to bear. I now it i difficult, but even when you say you are "whining just a little" you come of strong. Please Ed, stay strong.
