Hello Lads: 'scuse me for hi-jacking your thread, Wayne, but I thought this
was the best place to put an update on me. It appears my health is getting
better. I do not have any more cardiology appointments. Same for lung doctors
and kidney doctors. Don't have a urology appointment for a year. Just dialysis
three days a week. I'm at the new DaVita center..... just a mile a half from my
house. Chair time is 0530... and that's not a typo.... 0530 ! I'm home by 0900.

My docs have taken me off of five of my nine daily medications. Three of the four
I'm still on are vitamins. Does this tell you something ? I feel much better, and
have bee quite active in my garden. Lots of good veggies this year.

Erich sent me about 100 Japanese maple seeds, so I am back to growing JM's, too.

I'll be more active on the forum, now, but I won't be building models.

Thanks for listening...

Charles
