Hey Al!
I'm hangin in there buddy! ;)
I was attacked by the vampires (phlebotomy lab) earlier this week, and I'm just starting to feel a little bit better today but, I felt bad that I wasn't up to getting together with Joe Kane who was in town this week - due to the way I was feeling earlier this week... Oh well, maybe next time.
Other than that, I've been taking it easy these days mainly because my health has not been cooperating in the way I would like it to and quite frankly, I'm getting tired of it but then again, there are some things in life that are out of our hands, and sometimes hard to accept... Now don't get me wrong, over the years I've learned to live with my illnesses and the limitations they have imposed on my lifestyle... The hard part is finding people that can understand my disabilities enough to work with me... Kind of like finding a needle in a haystack if you get my meaning. ;) Once they find out that I had a liver transplant, and have cancer which they eventually do find out about one way or another, most people change their opinion about me from being someone that they can rely upon to someone they would rather not have to deal with at all, and I always hear the same line: "It's not personal... It's just business."
Anywho, I've got to get another eye exam and an EKG this week so I can go back on chemo again which is bumming me out a bit because I would rather be teaching again instead of constantly having to fight off one disease after another. :( :( :(
I know this is only a temporary setback but, I'm getting tired of all these temporary setbacks, and I'm starting to lose patience with the Medical establishment
but Al, I apologize for dumping on you like this... I know that my faith will get me through this like it has before, so I guess I just need to get a little more "gratitude in my attitude" as some may say. ;)
My saving grace is in keeping active in the forum again and until I win this upcoming fight, I'll just have to settle for some part time work if I can find it. :)
Hopefully I'll have some better news soon but, thanks for asking anyway Al. :) :) :) Btw, How are you Al?
Respectfully,
Henry
