Good to hear from you again!
Sorry to hear the news. How many of the skin biopsies came back positive? I had one on my neck come back positive.
Attitude means a lot right now, concentrate on what you have, not what may happen.
Easier said than done, for sure, but it will help.
I decided to retire sept 8th. I was going to wait another year, but things are becoming slowly more difficult. So I decided to go early, while I can still enjoy myself.
My doctor put me on Buspar for anxiety, really messed up my stomach. I'm glad you’re going to Mayo- no place better!
It’s the Fourth of July and I am foregoing my 8:00 bedtime, going to the city park and watch the fireworks, it has been many, many years when I watched them as a child, yet I still find them very exhilarating.😃
Keep the strength! Regards, Ashley

@ashley43725 Plan on doing something every day during retirement. Give yourself a reason for tomorrow.

@ashley43725 good morning to you, I hope the fireworks display was worthy of skipping your 8pm norm.
I’m sure it was, Fireworks displays still amaze me especially when choreographed.
My biopsy from ankle was positive/ abnormal, I don’t recall thigh or neck being positive.
Glad to hear you went ahead and retired, I know you have set yourself up with your hobbies to stay busy and engaged; important.!
I to am processing if I will retire or do one more project coming up in August.
Thing is, it’s out of state and I’ll be a long ways from home.
I stay busy here, but my social engagement is at a minimum and that’s what work would help with.
I have a few more weeks to decide so, one day at a time right now.
Take care - Craig
