Please know that I am fine and in good fighting spirit. I intend to be around for a long while yet. I have a friend who has MS. He can no longer walk. He can not feed , bath, or dress himself. He can not hold a book to read. He has lost the will to try. Today he collapsed over lunch. His nurse called the ambulance and they restarted his breathing and got him going again. He was angry because they had brought him back. He can not give voice to his feelings. So I want to try to do it for him For Gus, A Friend It is time. I've had a good life, the race has been fun but now there's to much pain when I run. The course I've played with gusto and zeal but now it costs to much to heal. I've enjoyed the adventures we've had through the years but more days are now filled with confinement and fears. I love you and know that you love me, so; Allow me to choose my time to go.
