yeah, I got to see my team win a WS in person. That’s all there. But, too much of the Cardinals of late is being retained by me. Why can’t I forget those crappy teams?

Sorry to hear about your issues BRC. While only (somewhat) temporary, I know what you're going through.
I went in for routine sinus surgery to remove polyps. This was about my 5th go though. Surgery on Friday, wham bam back to work on Monday. So routine my dad would drop me off and pick me up. The last one, they wheeled me out to his car and I got in. He asked "What the hell happened?". I'm like, what? He said "It's Saturday. They kept you overnight." I'm like, nahhhh. Long story short, my heart stopped twice during the procedure. I lost oxygen to my brain. I get home, can't remember shit. I would ask the GF 3 times in 5 minutes what she wanted for dinner. It all came back but it was a scary time. I still forget shit. Maybe that's cuz I'm older now. But know what it feels like. God speed brother.

What is the first hobby you want to do or new place you want to travel to?

I don’t know? Never been a big hobby guy. Traveled all over the world so I’ll be happy going wherever the love of my life wants to go.

That's sort of scary. Sorry for the troubles. On the other hand, retirement sounds pretty nice.
Hit the beach and have a few drinks! |

Yeah, the unknown is the worst part. But, I've had a good life. From how my life started to being able to live the life I wanted alongside the love of my life, I'd hope everyone gets to experience that feeling.

Sorry to hear it. Enjoy your post-IT retirement, trust me it's awesome. As a CCIE who had a great career moving through the ranks I can tell you that when you're done, you're done.
Again, just sit back and enjoy coasting through the years that many many many years of hard work will provide. Travel your ass off, see the world, and let the current set it IT professionals deal with what is always a crisis of some sort.

Sorry to hear about your problem BRC and wish all the best on your retirement.
Too bad we were not able to get together that time with Frazod and Nzoner downtown Chicago. Nzoner and I had a blast that night and I had to take a $90 cab ride to get home after getting lost on the train. |

Sorry to hear the choice of retirement wasn't totally your call, but that just opens the door for all the stuff you've wanted to do and haven't had the chance/time to do it.
You're on "you" time now. Go exploit it. |

Best of luck to you BRC. Not the circumstances you were hoping for but hopefully the docs can figure something out. Have fun, do what makes you happy, and know from this thread a lot of people care.

Sorry to hear this man. My mom has some auto immune issues she’s had for 40 years or so. Her cognitive abilities have declined. Some because of side effects of long term use of medication for those illnesses. Otherwise she’s just a few years older than you. Sounds like you have got good Drs and you are looking into more options. Vitamins and supplements is something some believe in. Some don’t. I started following a couple of YouTube quacks. Both are chiropractors I believe but I pick up things that will help me eat better or vitamins to try and sample with my mom.
Dr Eric Berg https://youtube.com/@Drberg?si=5igFeCYepaSsAU8v Dr Alan Mandell https://youtube.com/@motivationaldoc...QtG8OPgQ7qJMj5 For example one thing I did was having her eat blueberries daily or every other day at least. And it helps. It’s not a miracle cure but finding if you’re deficient in vitamins or minerals or nutrients I think chipping away at those things is helpful. It will also give you something to do and research on different ways other than your Dr how you might be able to help you. There’s other channels on there those just happen to be the ones I find most helpful. Tons of older videos with both going back 5+ years. Have the wife watch some or find out others. Just a resource that’s helped me bro. Hopefully you find them and/or different ones that are beneficial for you
