Not yet. But I am seeing her next week. It’s amazing. I have always taken (and consistently) taken such good care of myself. I wonder if aging just makes us less confident in “what could happen” that we listen to things that might not be best for us. Still can’t believe his actions—and my response. Thanks for input!

Listen to your inner voice - I think as we slow down, we are more aware of what is best for us. It is never wrong to keep asking questions, and except in an emergency, take the time to explore all the options. A second, or even third voice, can help. I have been pressured for 20 years to take statins because of family heart risk history. Instead I committed to a healthy lifestyle, and have passed the family's " first heart attack age" by over 15 years.
