I phoned the doctors surgery last week; to make an appointment with Doctor W. sorry Doctor W. has been dead ten years okay no problem, how about Doctor Y. sorry gone too. All the names I knew seemed to be dead,
Anyway Mr M. you have not been near us for twenty years, Just as well says I tersely, you crowd cannot even look after yourselves.
(True story)
When the humour goes, that is when the real problem’s starts.
Glad to see yours is still intact.

Poor Baby, you always turn things in life, even the painful ones into poetry.
grrrl, you are s-trong! i know this, through your writing and through the sure knowledgge i have that to experience such things is to go beyond where most do, which gives you a perspective upon life that most do not have...continue to share with us, your ineffable humor and light! write on!
I have been thru that myself, maybe not as extreme, since the military kinda has you in their clutches and can do as they please, and most of the time do...I am sorry anyone has to live thru pain in any way...my two discs are not much of a problem, once in awhile I feel a tingling in my left thigh, but nothing to speak of too strongly. Karla, and Karen, I am so sorry I cannot do anything to ease your pain, or else I would do so in a heartbeat...Peace, ED & rufuz
Doesnt sound to comfortable....God Bless
