I have complex sleep apnea, severe arthritis, and peripheral polyneuropathy (both sural nerves are dead) and depression (denied until 2010) I'm medically retired. My wife Kathy is a stage three hodgkins disease survivor from 1991 by the grace of God. Other that the love of family time I had a great passion for riding my bike a 1999 Vulcan Nomad, sailing, and being in the outdoors, sence my conditions are trying to take control of my life I have adjusted my focus on life spending time on my favorite passtime spending time with my family, and a quest for a better quality of life for all through knowledge. this is the first time trying something like this (last night I missed up trying to send this message twice and lost it because not logged in) also my hand eye coordination is messed up and takes a while to type this but lesson learned. I also feel this will help with my depression having someone to talk to who knows what I am going through (great therapy). Thank You for your time Rich!!
