Well, not too many replies on my re-intro post. Don't be a-scared of me, I'm
mostly just an old dead head, estimated prophet, looking for the golden
shore. I have had/battled hep for as long as I can remember, and my memory
is sorta like a train, gettin smaller as it pulls away. I can be as serious
as a heart attack when need be, a PTSD -Round eye blues, first responder,
but the nightmares ain't worth it, and I have already blew the varicies in
my tummy/esophogus, so I try to keep life on the lite side. Don't worry, if
your hurtin, I'll never put ya down, and if ya want some good alt-country
music by the Ragman himself, drop me note.

We have had about a foot of snow this week, and I just found a music site
and down loaded about 6 hours of Jerry and Bobby from 1967. Guess I'll sit
next to the back porch door, watch the birds at bird feeder, and be totally
grateful.

Ah darn, Bobby, in the good ole days 6 feet of snow made a New England
Beer cooler - open the front door and shove them into the snow ;) This
morning we were greeted with the forecast that we should get a foot or
two of snow on Wednesday - we gave literally had none all winter, so
it was inevitable. I know that lost brain feeling - love the song "Run
away train, never comin back..."  Hear The Birds, Bobby, Hear The
Birds....

I ain't a-scared.  I'm just a-scatterbrain, that's all.  I don't post much
any more, but I read regularly.

Hi Bobby McGee, welcome back to the group.  There are lots of us lutking
around here but the winter makes us chronically grumpy I think.  I enjoy
your posts.  I feel awful about your wife.  I think my cousin may have
neurological Lyme.  The diagnosis is not definitive, I guess. What a
hardship.  

I distract my self with creative efforts too.  Sometimes it is the only
way to move forward when I am stuck in an emotional ditch.

It's kinda weird, and even tho I was hep+ since '73, for whatever bizarro
reasons I don't feel like one of the grizzled veterans that ol' Elmo wrasseled
up and brought over from the WebTV days. Cripes, I oughta feel like one of the
crowd, but I suspect being intrinsically a-social that might have something to
do with it ;-)

I hear ya out there, Bobby, and I hear your beloved is going through a long
tough stretch, and I can only tell you, having spent the afternoon at the 60th
birthday party for one of my wife's (6!) sisters, no matter how tough it gets,
life is worth every second above ground that we get.

Best wishes to you and yours, and I sure as hell hope your spouse catches a
break with her ordeal soon...

Cheers

Well, thank you for the nod. Feel like Stymie, "Part of the gang again".
Sittin here listenening to my demo cd, thinking it took 45 years, but the
soul of the colored blues players on my corner when I grew up, have finally
grasped my soul, and come out my harps. "Feel so downtrodden, like a horse
shoe on a losing mare". Bring my wife to the dentist today, she hasn't
driven in close to 2 years now. Maybe by the end of the week we will know
whether or not she'll get the infusions. I have stepped up my acupuncture to
once every 3 weeks, as my system has been shutting off before my regular 4
week appointments. Used to pray that the hep would take me and that the
force would leave my wife alone. After seeing the way my buddy died, I don't
want that anymore. We are both gonna make it. Friday, if no positive medical
intervention is found, we are calling Bernie Sanders office. He's really a
good guy to have on your side if your sick or a vet. Thats Veteran, he may
like animals too.

"I'm a river flowing straight into a flood, a fistful anger exploding into
rage"
Winter might be comin Wed....We could use a real storm to replace the
footfull of flurries/sqauls we have had.
Thank you friends for listeneng.
Bobby
