Guess it's time to call my dad and tell him he's CRAZY !
That 'crazy' guy had MULTIPLE laminectomies over several years starting 15 years ago.
In the intervening years, he also had stage 3 colon cancer, with surgery and chemo. He just had a clean pet scan 10 years after the conclusion of his treatments (which started 12 years ago)
To celebrate, at age 75, he's heading off to Acadia National Park to do some bike riding.
He does his back exercises every day. He walks about 5 miles a day. If it's not raining, he bikes 20 miles most days but has been known to zip through 100 a day/200 a weekend.
He's got a few more wrinkles now, but I can assure you....he IS healthier now than he was 12 years ago......and I've seen the medical records that PROVE that.
p.s........My psychiatrist says I'm not crazy.
