Real patient experiences
Aging is not a thing. But can you give up what you know for what is real?
I believe that eventually the world will join me in understanding that there is really only one disease, with many faces. Depending on how long and in which organs the process has run, you see manifestations of disease and aging that you might call aging.
“Now I am the TELOMERATOR – destroyer of kingdoms”

How does it feel to be immortal? My answer might surprise you…
My feelings cannot be fractally scaled out like an accordion to experience the accelerated loss of loved ones or ennui with my fourth century of watching reruns of sports, TV premises, movies and wars.
I am aware that accidental death and dismemberment are always lurking because I have no reason to think that they wouldn’t.

Veteran’s Day – our GI’s were exposed to mustard gas in the Gulf War
Today is #MondayMusings and Veteran’s Day. Although this is not a political posting, we should check ourselves for logical and moral consistency.

How some pundits are using this as a “We told you so” is still a difficult leap for me to make.
