This little series hits close to home. I like to believe that when I was a young man the only reason I didn’t relax in air-conditioned comfort, strolling outside only to watch the world go by from my own balcony, was that I couldn’t afford it then, but I know that really wasn’t the case. True, I couldn’t afford it, but I wouldn’t have chosen it anyway. Sedate comfort was for old folks!

Oops! The above was in response to Mark! My excuse… the coffee pot went on the blink and I am drinking tea. I like tea, but no comparison to a big mug of coffee on a Saturday morning!
Galliglo, the main VA hospital for this area is in Birmingham. I have not had to go to it yet, but my next door neighbor’s husband does. And according to her they are a trying location. Trying your patience, that is.
The local facility was established mainly as a psychiatric care center. But everybody has the same medical needs, whether they are psych patients or not, and the psychiatric patients don’t create 100 percent usage of the facility, so the rest of us can go there too. And it’s easier to get in. I was a pre-existing patient, having registered there for medical care when I moved here in 2010. So I didn’t have the wait to see first doctor, etc, a completely new patient might have.

Mark I am so proud of you for doing all this. Taking control of your health and responsibility for your own body and soul takes commitment and strength. It is an acceptance of our fallibility but a refusal to let it define us.
You are correct in saying all of us here in the Village face this and deal with it, I know that. The Village was my support in horrible times and continues to be. It is why I truly want to meet all I can. Not curiosity but gratitude.
Keep on putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward. Don’t look back unless that’s where you’re going.
Thank you Jackie.
