Awh what nice memories and numbers. But. To be 69 isn't great.
I was 69 back in July, what a month. I fell 5 times and the VA has not made a move about my knees. Also I got a second opinion about my eye. HELLO rubber stamp. Someone of ya realize that I can't see well. It seems as I've become a bit of dyslexias. Hey that's redneck spelling. Old 1 eyed red neck me. The asshole about my eye, said,"anything I could read below the big E, was a blessing

I happy belated birthday. Sorry to hear about the falls on top of your eye probs. The VA is being a pain in the butt again for me too

Belated happy birthday, b. Sorry the VA person was a jerk ... any chance of a Medicare or other 2nd opinion?

Happy Belated birthday BB. You fell five times and they won't do anything? Is there some advocate you can get to for for you? -that's extreme negilence imo.

Went to my pri-Dr yesterday, and now I have a bunch of shit to do.
Reina 4/12/. 12/19/12 ct scan pelvis and stomach, MRI knees, Ct scan lungs.
+ somewhere in this goat roping is a trip to tooth fairy, who will screw-up my X-Mas culinary delights.

Griff · 11-21-2012, 09:50 PM

Man, you will be thoroughly looked at.

BigV · 11-21-2012, 09:55 PM

Retina DR. the 12/4/12. Laser work on 1/8/13, remove oil 3 weeks later. VA carried me there. App. at 1:45 pm. Waited long enough to piss a grown man off. After 4pm finished. So, called VA for pickup, Guess what? Assholes have gone for day. 5 or so calls later they sent a cab, reckon came from Albuquerque
Now for the 12/19/12 I have lower exterm/ pack Fletcher clinic, WTF, at 10 am. CT scan at 11am. Have to drink the good shit night before. Gastrografin.
Guess the MRI is put off till 1/11/13. So I can make another !@#$ trip
Think I'll have a great big drink!

Also tooh fairy at 2pm on 19th. JOY JOY
