Hi Jeanie, Well I do take a lot of pills and other types of medication but that is what happens to someone that already had two transplants, a bone marrow and a kidney transplant some 27 years later. I have to because a lot are related to organ rejection and other things like blood thinners because of the stroke I had a bit over a year and half ago.
Now the really amazing thing about me, if you were to look at me now none of these things are even noticeable. Like I always say I can pee, I can see, I can hear (but probably in need a hearing aid in the future, I can walk I can talk I can stand I can sit up I can sit down by myself and I can get up from the toilet by myself, and the best of all I can drive at night with Ms. Daisy (my wife Shelly. 👋Yea! Now you can see that I am like Popeye the sailor man, I am what I am. You have to know that anyone should never feel sorry about themselves because medical conditions come and go even if some are permanent because crying will always make you feel worse. I am not the kind of person that usually cries easily, but I do especially if one of my family or close friends passes on. My father, my mother, my brother and my sister all made me cry a bucket of tears. If anyone knows by now then you know all about what I already went through but I keep on standing up and try to go on with my life, and so should everyone of you. You know what 18's represents, so keep on to every precious moment of your life. 18's, Marty On Fri, Apr 8, 2016 at 5:31 PM, 'Icandoallttc' via CMLHope < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi Marty and good advice.
