Keep yourself alive

In the Winter, when I can't ride my bike, I do resistance exercise. Today was a leg day.

If you don't fight, you will die. Sure, you can find an exception, and 100,00 corpses that aren't one in a million (sorry about the math).

I'm usually in treatment for prostate cancer, right now it's just pills. had heart surgery in August, and had a severe stroke a couple years ago.

There is an autobiography, don't like the guy, I'll never read it, but the title is unforgettable.

Old age is not for sissies.

Truer words.
As one gets older it gets harder and more painful to move. Staying 'comfortable' in one's easy chair is a death sentence.

Thanks, it's not every day I get a laugh that good.
Good for you! None of us knows what lies beyond biological life but it is worth fighting for. Certainly there is a point where quality of life is so low and pain so high that maybe it's time to let go. But you sound like you are a long way from that. Keep it up.

What’s so terrible about death? I’d rather live a shorter time and enjoy what time I have than to be miserable for an even longer time.
 
I did too!

Well a touch of it, it messed up my lower leg bones. Leg braces took care of the worst of it but I don't remember them. They came off when I was four, or so I was told.

My mom said to completely straighten them out they would have to had to break both of my legs, reset, and be in traction for months.

I'm told it's half the reason for my current knee troubles. Oh well.

Small wonder mothers of that era were chasing the polio vaccine when one came out. Virginia was hit very hard.

Did you also fall and land on your head? That would explain so much.

A lot of people that aren't inches from death say that.

Getting chummy with the Grim Reaper tends to change their minds..

Working out does not make your life miserable
 
I was in touch with a cousin of mine today who I haven't talked to in awhile, and is about 9 years younger than me. She brought up the topic of epigenetics with me and she made me realize she's really no dummy. She didn't overtly explain why she brought up the topic, but I think little cous was actually trying to give me advice on aging gracefully. 😏
