planedriver Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 It comes to us all one day, but I sure feel like i'm getting old. I've had two bypass surgeries you know. a hip replacement, two new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes, i'm half blind, and can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine at take-off power, even with new batteries in my hearing aid. I take 40 different medications a day that are inclined to make me a bit dizzy, short-winded, blurred vision and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia, (but can't remember when), and poor circulation; Can hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92. Have lost all most of my friends. but thank God for Rec/Aus, I still have my pilots certificate. At least this way, if I climb till it won't go any higher, i feel i'm a bit closer to getting to heaven. ;););) Anyone got a plane I can borrow to go for a fly? Don't laugh, this is serious stuff!!
