Well bio has made public his diagnosis and while not fatal in the short term it is incurable at this time. He has Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia which caused him extreme fatigue prompting a doctor visit where a blood test indicated a blood problem. It makes me angry at how unfair cancer can be.

My old boss is on year 18 with his CLL. It’s no walk in the park but it’s not a death sentence even if it’s incurable.

I'm old enough to remember when tonsils were a focal point when a sore throat was involved. There weren't many kids in my era that didn't have the old snip process done. Mine were removed before I was 6 years old. It did end the sore throat and fevers and I don't remember ever having much in the line of sore throats since then. Now, obviously, that is the last thing they look for. Where's Dr. House when you need him!

What I remember from that whole experience was being sick a number of times before the surgery, my mother holding me when I was sick, the doctor making a house call to give me a penicillin shot, (yes, house call's were common back then), having a Michigan style hot dog and chocolate milk on my way to the hospital, the rest is a blur except for being given ether and having a swirling vision in my head and then waking up only to vomit which was a common occurrence when ether was used. Good times! I also find it amazing that I can remember that from nearly 70 years ago and can't go from one room to another now without wondering why I went there.
