Those Mediterranean dames get too much facial hair.

Agreed. Hoping George would read it and put a smile on his face.

I AM STILL ALIVE AND SEMI-WELL
Good Saturday to you fine men, even you Corona.
Schmeggler did a good job protecting my privacy so here is a little info but not too much. On 10/25 after driving my wife crazy with coughing I went to my PCP and he immediately had an X-ray done of my lungs. I failed. He scheduled me for a CAT which I also failed, right lung filled with fluid. My Pulmonologist- happy I already had one- compared the CAT to 3 years prior and after a meeting with him he put me in Hartford Hospital the next day with a Thoracic surgeon who drilled through my back and removed 1.4 liters of nasty red fluid from my right lung. After a Cytology report it was decided that I needed more exploration and on 12/13, I spent 4 hours in the OR with about 15 people and they cut a hole through my right rib cage and stuck in a camera and a John Deere mini excavator to take biopsies. They haven't given me the full skinny yet- I get reports to my phone that I can't understand- but it is not cancerous but what is causing it I don't yet know and I am not sure they know either. I was released after two days in the hospital. My breath is good. More to learn in the next two weeks. I have to say the experience has caused me to evaluate what I need to focus on. I have missed our entire hunting season and I will probably reduce my gun collection accordingly. I have a great family that is close by complete with two new grand-daughters and that is the greatest pleasure.. Oliver keeps me company and Sharon has been a saint in tolerating me. Stay tuned. |

"Good Saturday to you fine men, even you Corona."
Well actually my Saturday got markedly better hearing your trails and tribulations are not as dire as I suspected so I accept your statement as a form of endearment.
