    Currently dealing with influenza, double pneumonia, and blood pressure varying from 236/110 to 58/42 (within a few hours.) Spent last week in two different hospitals. (VA admitted they weren't up to this.)

    So how's your own goldbricking coming along?

    Two skin cancers removed in a week...one from my face and one from my fore-arm. My space suit keeps getting holes!

    I've had seven operations on my eyes since July 2015. Four other surgeries in that span. Time to recycle this wreckage.

    As an ex-Corpsman, my advice is to take an 800 milligram Motrin and just walk it off.

    I drove this morning for the first time this month. Still thinking about cutting to chase and consent to an autopsy.
