Why thank you. I am both a neuropathite and autoimmutant.

Both are becoming more evident every day. Ugh. But I did say my resolution was not to crank about my lack of health for just today. That lasted 15 minutes.
As for not losing a sense of humor, after one adjusts to the misery of this condition, one can not help but turn to humor for coping. There is not much else that helps.
And for the smilie who is using his bird finger to pick his nose, how appropriate.
