That is what I am most thankful for, time. We have been able to say everything we could possibly want to say. Actually, this has brought us closer together and we appreciate each other more than in the previous 47 years together. @sstiffel64 Take advantage of every moment with your loved ones. I don't know how you are feeling, but don't put off day trips that are manageable. Do what you can while you feel good. Let your goals include making memories with those who love you. Yes, you want great doctors, and I have loved everyone at Mayo Jacksonville. They are the best. They treat you with dignity and respect, not as just a body to be treated. But don't forget to LIVE LIFE as a whole human being as long as you can.
I'll be thinking of you!

Thank you for kind words and advise. Weird thing is I am so lucky right now. I really wouldn’t know how sick I am if doctors didn’t tell me. Just get exhausted quicker but afternoon napping seems to handle it. Brain scan yesterday shows four tiny tumors I figured this with vision issue last week. Appointment today looking forward to getting treatment started.
