This is not a job that we can quit, or a life that we can walk away from with dignity and respect. Our doctors entrust us to prescribe medication to enhance our quality of life or to live, whether we take them or not is a choice, yes, I agree with that. To take your life back to its natural state is acceptable. There are many alternative therapies that we can use to support our natural being and sometimes in doing so we actually begin to heal. My legacy is not to fight this fight and then just choose to quit. In my opinion, that is not my choice, nor my families choice, it is what it is, and we just have to dig a bit deeper each day and try to reach out and touch and enhance the lives of others.

Bob, I hear what you are saying, and trust me some days I do understand. The quality of our lives have changed, yes, however, you seem like a great guy and I am sure you contribute to life in a greater way than your illness.

I wish you both a painfree evening. And a cow wouldn't last in my living room, I have a big family and one thing I am able to do is cook and take great pride in doing so. KS, I will take over rowing for awhile you need to rest my dear friend. THE END
