Update II

 After my recent fall in which I broke my left hip and femur I convinced myself it was only a matter of time before I return to my usual day to day activities including playing Pickleball three days a week. Regrettably it is all too apparent this will not happen. My age (86) and fall have taken their toll. Accordingly it is time to think in terms of what I will and won't do for the remainder of my life.

Will do: (1) Stay home with as many caretakers that I need and can afford to keep me upright, comfortable and able to take nourishment(2)Use a drug e.g. marijuana to minimize pain and discomfort whether it be physical or mental (3) publish a book documenting my trials and tribulations. I will provide the title, cost, and where this book can be purchased in this forum when this data is available.

Won't do: take medications to extend my life. I know such drugs exist (one of my Cancer buddies is currently using such drugs as prescribed by his doctor).

Best wishes to you and yours.
