Introduction. Attempt #2

in intro •  8 years ago  (edited)

I am new here and know so little about the currency or this community that I am lost. Will read more.
I am in U.S.A. Do not have much to say this morning so, Thank you.

I have given this some thought and here we go.

Born in Hot Springs Arkansas. Went to public schools in Texas a long time ago. Had a battle with alcohol and
was able to quit that in 1982. Married my beautiful wife in 1978. We have had a very interesting ride.

In 2009 I let the doctor talk me into getting an EKG. Next thing I know he is introducing me to a cardiologist.
He said we will start with a stint. Next was a pacemaker. He is a great guy. May not be here if not for him.

2014 I was sent to a periodontist. Old school kind of guy. Although my mouth had been numbed he insisted
on cutting a hole in a place that was not numb at all. It was fun as I tried to escape he held me down and cut away.
Turns out it was a good idea. Biopsy showed cancer.

As you can possibly guess, I got to meet more doctors. 21 months later I am pleased to say that without meeting
these wonderful people I may not be here today. They hold a very special place in my heart.

The point being, I think, we may never know why we travel the roads we do, but the people we meet are very
important in ways we may have not seen.

Now I am on a journey powered by steem. Did not see this coming. Thank you for your time and friendship.
