well not with motorcycles. but moving up with my PT and moving a little better. i now moved up from snail to turtle. i made it half way around the gym. today with the use of the walker. orthopedic doc said the left knee is in real bad shape and the last operation. back in november 2009 prety much did it in there is verry little cushion. cartlage. left the bone on bone. is makeing the knee cap grind. he agreed to let me keep it untill july. then we talk total replacement. he said he would like it done before next winter. because i need to move that new knee around and in the winter there is verry little room around here to walk and exersize. im just happy i can now stand and move even if its not verry far and i need the use of a walker. where trying to get me back to the use of a cane. i have 2 weddings to attend my daughter in may. and a old friend in july. one i give the daughter away. the other im the best man. he,s a old neighbor from MN just cant figure out why a 72 year old would get married again. and ask me to be his best man/ i think he out lived all of his other neigbors LOL. or could be all the scrap we use to collect and find out we spent more time cleaning that crap. just to make a few$$. but the memories of him and how tough that old bugger is. makes it all worth the while.

your a good person. i too lived out in the sticks in minnesota. for some reason every one thinks your a refuge for there unwanted animals.. i was taught by my great grandma and grandma, that there gods creatures. take care of them and they some how take care of you. like my dog just a little terrior mix about 15 pounds crawled out of his box at a friends house because mom had to many pupies and he was the runt. he was under weight. and looked like he wasent going to make it. i put him in a blanket took him home. bottle fed him and kept him warm. a little clock in his box made him think it was his moms heartbeat. well i had farley for 19 wonderfull years. you get back what you put in.

well the gout is almost out of my system. there just trying to find out why i cant hold myself up/ there is now power in the legs from the hips to the knees. and the ankles are weak. this could be from my MS. im on a ton of meds. seems like you have to take 2 to counter the efects of the one that should help you. it takes about 5 minutes to pull myself up to a standing postion. then i use the walker. and try to walk the distance of my small apartment. i do this every 2 hrs. this takes me 10 minutes to move around a very small distance. the PT nurse says im moving a little faster. but not verry stable yet. its like you know your standing but cant get full feeling in the legs. then the back pain comes. dead cent of the lower back. i had a MRI back in 2009and it showed a slight buldge in the ls1 and ls5 area? this is by the tail bone. next week back injections start again. then steroid treatment to help rebuild muscle loss in the legs? if i cant ride this year im content with that. health comes first. as for MD cager are welcome . and im sure there is help to get an oldgoat. moving around with a walker.

prayers sent for a speedy recovery

about 3 weeks ago i came down with terrible gout attack. this attack went from my right foot to both knees then both ankles. my sister came in one day to check in on me. and i was leaning slumped over my walker. she could not wake me. ambulance and emt arrived emt.s had a hard time waking me . ambulance attendent placed me on the gurney. while laying flat i came too.. so this is what they found. after 2 weeks in the hospitial. #1 gout caused an infection in my right kidney causeing it to shut down. had 3 pints of blood put into me. infection made me pee blood. #2 reduced my blood preasure meds because while sitting i would drop down to 85/60. and would pass out. standing would rush it back up to 190/120. again i would just pass out. now with adjustment in meds im at 135/90 not great but under controll and no passing out.#3 this all caused an attack to my leggs most likely MS flair up? i can no longer hold myself up. i have trouble walking. im useing a walker and takeing baby steps. pain shoots down both legs. so i will be seeing a pain management doctor. then some kind of doctor who will work on the back and do some kind of nerve block? then back injections. i cant drive my car as i cant feel the foot controlls. i have PT 2 times a day at home. and food brought in as i cant even stand up long enough to make something. i cant get into my shower. so its sit on a comode. inside a plastic tub. and do a wash down by the kitchen sink. the PT nurse will empty it when she comes. so that,s how im doing. weak a little scared. but determend to beat this attack back into admission.

Have a happy birthday.

well im trying cherries. will be seeing the doctor on monday. the worse thing is the foot is verry painfull. and the cast feels tight because of the swelling. the doctors nurse said if it continues. then they will remove the cast put me in the hospitial treat the gout and use a splint to hold the ankle untill it can be re casted. the cast i have now is open at the toes. i can see the redness. and just touching that toe is a killer. also the nurse said to drink lots and lots of water??
-
well the first of the year i was feeling good. then 2 days ago the gremlin got me. a slip and fall broke my right ankle. and twisted the knee. 6 weeks on crutches. for the ankle to heel. then something called gout settled in the big toe of the same foot. if any one has ever had this. i truly feel for you.. so here i sit. with a cast on the foot pain like the devil himself is useing a red hot poker on my foot. drugged out of my mind. all i can say is it has to get better.

I'm not much good when it comes to measuring things. what all guys are good at this we allways add a few inches and allow for shrinkage.

well it started great for me. i dont want to jinx my self but for the first time in over a year. i woke up feeling prety damn good. saw the sun was out still cold as heck but its shinning. had lots of rain so the big pile of snow is gone. found $40 bucks just out side my door some poor soul must have lost it while walking back from the tavern. got 2 emails saying im the next of kin for $8.5 million. so watch out im going to ebay and corner the market on first and second generation parts. now if i can just get pepole to pay $125 for a single mirror plus shipping i can get my investment back in no time. well i truly hope every one had a great New year.
