Bob

Bob has seen the neurologist, Dr. Y, twice. The first time Dr. Y said Bob might not have had a TIA, but instead a TGA, but more tests would be needed. On Friday Bob saw Dr. Y, again and the doc said that his episode was looking more like a TIA, and he ordered one more test on Bob's cartioid arteries. The test is tomorrow. This getting older business can be a trial. We're down but not out.

Here are some quotes about aging:

Clarence Darrow:
The first half of our lives is ruined by our parents, and the second half by our children.

Abraham Lincoln:
And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Elizabeth Arden:
I'm not interested in age. People who tell me their age are silly. You're as old as you feel.

Helen Hayes:
The hardest years in life are those between ten and seventy.

Henry David Thoreau:
None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

Hub is 11 years older than me, but you'd never know it...until recently. His knee thing, that's not a blood clot but is something, his High BP, his stress, his being 11 years older than me with a 7 year old daughter...he is feeling it, and is not liking it a bit.
