Thanks. I have disclosed it in other posts here, not for sympathy, but to make certain points about the SS Ponzi scheme on various treads.

I am lucky. I am afflicted with CLL, the “best” Leukemia you can get, or so they tell me. Unfortunately, you're supposed to get it in your 70’s, not in your 50’s. This popped up when I was 52.

I have been in remission for over 2 years. So far, so good. My Oncologist gave me a ten to fifteen year estimate on survival. Could be more, could be less.

When he told me, I said, “you mean I'm getting ripped off on my SS and Medicare?” That was my first thought when he broke the news. He looked at me like I was crazy. Maybe I am, but that is what really pissed me off.

Nobody lives forever, and I have had a good life and always appreciate how fortunate I have been.

I love Big Pharma for inventing the wonderful Chemo drugs I was given and I thank God for living in a Country that provides the incentive to provide the greatest Medical Care in the world.

Must be why I hate Liberal whiners and malcontents. Now we have one in the White House along with 52% of the Electorate.

Thanks for your kind thoughts. One thing I always remember is, there is always somebody better off than you and there is always somebody worse off than you.

That is life, and I'm the luckiest guy walking through it.
