Well, this is a revolting development...

Well, the King is officially retired.. and he went to

his send off with 2 other future retirees.

He had a good time, with good food and good people.

with a slight tear in his eye, he said his goodbyes.

There were lots of laughter as well, as his major

Boss roasted him with a sour valuation. To the laughter

of all. And applause.

But thru all of this.. he had developed some medical

problems.  Out the clear blue sky came first a severe

headache. That was from the Bells Palsy he got after

the stress of dealing with the suicide of his sister.

Then as he got thru this.. his hip goes out.

It is bursitis they said. So he got a cortisone shot. Then

It went to his calf of his leg.  Thru it all there were MRI’s

and x-rays. This time it was an enlarged vein. Good new

it isn’t a blood clot.  I told him all of this is lasting 2 weeks

each. So next it should  hit his ankle and then his toes…and

then it should be finished with his body.  Lol..  He didn’t

see the humor of it.  

As we sat in the doctor’s examination room, he looked at

me so sadly and said… but I am retiring.. I am suppose

to be enjoying my life.. what the heck is all of this?  I’m

suppose to be having fun.. this is NOT fun… So much

for my golden years.. Gold for the doctor and hospital.

I told him, this too shall pass.
