Been 2-3 days since we heard from Ed, I think. Should we check in on him?

How does the NL keep managing to lose All-Star Games? Not that it matters in any way. It's just statistically odd. Of course, back in the 70s-80s, the NL nearly always won, so I guess it evens out over a large enough sample of years.

Well, that was thoroughly unpleasant. When it was over, the tech told me it's the 2nd worst MRI to do. The elbow is the only one more uncomfortable. But, it's over. Hallelu. I have to get a MRI on my kidney next Monday. The last one I thought I was going to die I hurt so bad.

The worst one I had, was not physically painful, but was to see if my prostate cancer had spread to the bone, coming out I asked the young male nurse if it had spread he said I can’t tell you, I told him just shake your head yes or no, he shook no, one of the best days of my life.

I am floored by how prevalent kidney disease is, I delivered 16,000 lbs in Vegas to 21 patients… brutal week in this heat. Glad to have tomorrow off.

The machine was too narrow for my shoulders and my legs were flat, so my back was arched in a way it doesn't bend. It was miserable. He was supposed to put a lift under my knees. Going in and out of the machine it was dragging me back and forth.

My first MRI machine trip for my shoulder was in a bogus facility...nose practically touching the face of the tube. Technician telling me to hold still while all the weight was on my injured shoulder. When my second shoulder was required for an MRI was scheduled I complained about the first one...."Well we have a facility where the Arizona Cardinals go, would you like to go there?" Hell yes...it was a wide open machine that was no problem.

It was feeling like 107 yesterday, today it's 83! 😁 Half inch of rain overnight with more forcast. All the rivers, bayous and creeks were still full before the rain. I am grateful for it, droughts are scarry and miserable.

Playing with my Airco compression device for my legs looking like the Michelin man in a office chair. Serious napping the last couple of days all these surgeries are taking their toll. Peace and love and remember to share.

Zarnicky's After Dinner Ukulele Society performing on Wednesday July 17th at local park in Cote Saint-Luc, Quebec. Concert was great success and Zarnicky providing free snow cones and cotton candy to everyone in park. Audience singing along and 3 nine year old boys dancing to music. Weather was beautiful. Only problem Zarnicky not allowed to smoking pipe in park.

What Urbino wrote times 2. And how about you, John? How's the chemo treating you? On Cycle 7 with one more to go. Tired, confused, dazed, clumsy. I am hoping it is working. So far, no indication of Cancer spreading. Thanks for asking. The worst part of this is the isolation. I am a pariah in my community. Hear from few people. Visited by people three times in five months. No one calls. My Ex has been the best support but she has other issues like her partner who has the shaking disease. I cannot what it is called. What Katherine Hepburn had. Poor guy.
