Ya know, it really is getting old, having doctors tell us what is wrong with us, and when asked what can be done about it... nothing. If you only knew how many times I have heard that from so many different types of doctors. We just dont want to be diagnoised, we want to be healed, but that seems to be asking a little too much.
Want to laugh? I had two different doctors in two different states tell me I was ment to be a reptile having 1 1/2 extra coxics bones on my tail bone. Well, I am a Pieces. 🐟 When I asked for the xray to have, he said, no, this is going in a medical book.
I'm very glad you and your friend have a yearly travel date, to explore and unwind. I wish more people did that. It's important to change our surroundings periodically.

Wow! Well at least you can say you are published even if it is in a medical book! That’s more than most people can say!
You are so right about doctors! They know if we were healed they would not have that steady stream of income from just treating people and prescribing drugs. I know that sounds cynical but after years and years it’s hard not to get a little jaded about it all. That’s ok though. I take what I have to and just keep on going!
I am fully aware that there are so many people way worse off than me and many that never made it to my age so I may grumble a bit about it but I’m very happy I am still around to get older.
Yes, my friend and I decided a few years ago that if we wanted to go places and have new experiences we better get started while we still could and we love it!
