Well, good and bad for you. The world needs people like you, but the personal price is high. Remember, if you are ill, you can’t do much. So some midground is needed. All my life I have exercised vigorously, watched my diet and worked in the gym. Now I meditate - a great addition as Injuries have slowed me down running and on the bike. I have also begun to limit my causes knowing I can’t do everything. Sort of a trite response, but it’s how I am keeping on… BTW, I now need back surgery with a 4cm aortic aneurysm. Trying to get in to see my cardiologist for his opinion.

By the time I found out I had an aneurysm, it was 4.2, then next year it was 4.3. Then 1 years later, it was 4.6. Then 1 year later, it was 4.7. Clearly, if it gets to 5.0, I will have to have surgery and that's terrifying 😳
