RE: On the cusp of 70 and pretty well fucked

I was always fit.

Somewhat athletic as a kid, I think I still am the Ohio State White Boy record holder in the Long Jump. Ran distance for recreation before Frank Shorter made it fashinable and continued Jogging daily and competing at 10,000 meters well into middle age.

When an Achilles became chronically painful at 45 I switched to road biking and then with my move here to Asheville 8 years ago to Mt. Biking.

My second career as a kitchen designer and cabinet thrower also kept me active at work.

Two and a half years ago pain sent me to a neurologist. I learned my Lumbar Spine was trashed (Stenosis)and I'd soon be a candidate for a hip replacement (osteo-arthritis). Over a very few months I became a Couch Dweller and pain med taker.

Now I'm fat, unemployed, miserable, and waiting around to die.

Sorry, you asked.
