A Wish Fulfilled, and a Legacy
A few months ago I posted about entering hospice and received many precious notes from well-wishers across the world. Your kind words mean so much to me that I’ve placed them in a document to look at whenever I need a lift! Words indeed support the healing process, and I am very grateful for being

Updates on my father
My father was scheduled for a simple robotic prostatectomy which turned in a partial cystectomy .. The surgeon found a well oval encapsulated mass in the bladder in the size of 14 cm which he removed it . He also did a simple prostatectomy , his prostate was enlarged but not as big as the doctor thought

This is a photo of me after 9 months on ADT, age 70. I’ve always tried to stay in good shape. Jack LaLane inspired me as a kid in the early 1960’s. Later inspired by Larry Scott, Arnold, Lou and others. I built muscle naturally, no steroids. As my testosterone naturally decreased in my late 50’
