I'll try and keep this short, as I don't have much energy at the moment. I was just released from the hospital again today. I've been in there the better part of two weeks. It seems I have contracted a rare disease called " (ANCA)-associated vasculitis" In short, my body is attacking its own organs. At this point, I may or may not have permanent kidney damage. They performed a biopsy yesterday to figure out the extent and severity of the damage. There is no cure for this, only maintenance. This will be a long, hard road to get back to any normalcy. It could be a year or longer. At the moment, I can hardly walk. My legs are full of blood clots and according to the doctors, they will take months for my body to reabsorb into my body. Hopefully, the pain will not last months. I can only walk about 50 feet at a time right now, and every step is painful. Some have you have asked where I've been. Unfortunately, this hit me at the beginning of November, and I've been battling it since. So I ask for your prayers. Prayers that God will fix me and allow me to continue to provide for my family. Prayers that I may return to work in a few months and things have been caught in time. Before this, I rarely took an aspirin, let alone had any major medical issues. Thanks everyone.-Finster

Sorry to hear of your health woes, my thoughts will be with you. 
 
  
I got myself a seniors' GPS.  Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.
