Interesting times. I’m still dealing with a leg issue. Turns out this will take a while to sort out. There is no quick surgical fix. The good news is that the large suspicious lump is not cancerous. Treatments have produced mixed results. One two week treatment put me in a lot of pain and I ended up in a wheelchair for a bit.
I’ve pretty much recovered from that and I can walk on my own -maybe not as far as I’d like but I can fake it enough to get some shopping done. So far I’ve seen a whole bunch of doctors and went to three different hospitals.
It’s been my experience that doctors are pretty much useless 80% of the time. They provide useful treatments and information about 20% of the time. However, I need that 20% as it concerns things I can’t do on my own. The trick is sorting out the essential 20%. Your results may vary.
Back in early spring the thought was that I’d get healthy enough to tackle my long list of projects. Right. So much for that idea. While I can now do some small projects the big projects require hired help. Actually, I’m pretty happy to give up the hand shovel work and replace it with a friend operating an excavator. Probably won’t miss the top of the ladder carpentry work either.
Life goes on.
