Good Morning to all members of this fine Blogging site..

I just had an idea for you. You can email me and ask any question you may have on this subject. We all are getting older so don't wait too long to ask your questions. Not all at once now, the server may get overloaded and just simply break.

Why don't you click on based on the alphabet...Your last name starts with an "A", you email me on Monday, "B" email me on Tuesday and so on...will be fun..

Northwestern Life Insurance Company has a nice little article out that I'll send to you when I find it again...It's something about clean living and living longer..will be fun to know how long we all have to finish up our duties on this particular earth..

I am designing a web site about commercial real estate. The research shows that there is not a whole lot of interest in that subject but it's all I know about so I can write usiing no notes.. It's all in my head but I need hurry as some cells are going south on me. Cheers and don't forget to keep sending them cards and letters....Until next time, this is Don rounding third and heading for home...Keep sming Jack

Hopefully this little Blog does not turn into a pesonal plea for your sympathy...This is to be in a position to pass on to you all some aging stuff to halp you along the way...

I just got home from having a colonescopy, may be wrong spelling but you know what I am saying. For those of you who are putting off getting this procedure, don't put it off because you have a little fear of Doctors, pain, time lost , etc for whatever reason.

The procedure was a piece of cake, the sedation put me out like a light and it was all over in a very short time. I am lucky, not cancer, no nothing to worry about. The Doctor told me daughter that I would have another ten years to go. I couldn't get it in writing however.

So the lesson for the day is go take care of these little tests and procedures as the Doctors recommend. Took about a day, getting ready and all.

My next procedure won't be quite so easy, it will be a biopsy of the prostate. Afew weeks and that will be over also. They will needle in some radiation pellets directly into the prostate and into any cancer they see hiding in there...

Don't be afraid of getting medical treatment. Heck don't be afraid....

I promised you an update on Doctors appointment on the 5th August, well senior moments come and go..The appointment was today the 7th.

My experiences could be of real value to you as you progress through the prostate maze of tips and tricks. The Doctors required records from the first time seen and that was not easy (What the heck is?) Who recalls the original Doctor? I didn't and had to call long distance to get his office for approval to send or call reords..

The office fool there said "After all Mr Stewart, we have a busy office here" My comment was "stuff you busy office and send the freekin records so I can qualify for the new peocedure. There is a time problem here"

Summary simply is that I had to call old friends in Nevada to go by the radiation clinic on some street named some Doctor to get detailed records sent to VA or I would be disqualified..

This sounds like Archie Bunker only worse. More blood dripped from the jagged knife as they drew blood to test..NO it wasn't a jagged knife, it was a little needle and it was ok....

My PSA count is 10.0, if it goes over 15.0 I am disqualified for the new procedure...time hangs heavy over my head, woe is me....

The "prostate saga" continues, it will either work out or it won't. If I get kicked off the deal, at least I'll escape another biopsy- that procedure smarts for sure.

You all hang in there, drink lots of water, stay cool, get some exercise give your spouse a hug. It's going to be allright...keep smilin Jack...
