The body is pretty amazing. Years ago we were at the range and this group shows up to bring granddad out to shoot.  The old guy got out a 1911 Colt .45 but to load the magazine into the gun he had to put both on the table and push them together. He shook like a leaf in a bad wind.We all stood

I just saw my ex-BIL on Friday.  He has had Parkinson's disease for several years now and is not doing well.  I had not seen him for maybe 3 years, I was surprised at the decline.  He's been through all the treatments but comes a point where nothing really works anymore.  He was golfing up
