Once again, thank-you all for your supportive words. I just heard from my doctor about my CT scan. He said it showed no evidence of any cancer. Thank God! He did say they found a lump on my lungs, but I already knew about that one. It's been stable for some years now, but I should keep an eye on it. He does want me to come in and see him about the abdominal pain, but at least it's unlikely to be cancer.

This has been a wakeup call. I've realized how important it is to spend my valuable time on social media arguing with people about politics .... Ha ha ha ha, just kidding. I had you going. I want to use whatever time I have remaining on my family and close friends. I won't have them forever, and they won't have me forever, so appreciate your family and friends while you still can. There are also skills I wish to continue developing, including language skills, meaning my French, German, and Swiss German. I've also always wanted to learn ventriloquism. I'm skyping later on today with a woman in Morocco to practice my French.

With any luck, maybe I've got a decent amount of time left here on Planet Earth. Thanks for your support. I appreciate every one of you guys.
