My last x rays, my doctor said there were fractures (plural). I have dealt with this for so long that I did not bother with more revisiting of specialists and such). I am too busy getting a colonoscopy or an endoscopy for GERD, or so on. Not that you would know it to see me!

It is an old story. It begins on a farm picking rocks bent over for hours and it begins again at about the age of twenty while stepping up into a step van with about 150 pounds of books in my arms while coming up on one foot up the step. I collapsed and was unable to move. From there it has been a snowball effect and many periods of being unable to move or sleep. However I discovered that narcotics give one a chance to sleep and to heal. I absolutely recommend narcotics when they may be of use.

I believe there is a Complaint Department. Perhaps I will go there! Although, overall...I cannot say that my life has been unfair in the scheme of things. Christ, no!

I DID bookmark all those lecture links. I have not opened any of them, yet. But I will let you know if I do...and if it is worth knowing.
