Yeah well, they are the last years. So don’t worry about it.

In August of 2020, I was checked into the ICU after having a mystery illness. I thought for sure it would be my liver after years of being a beer-aholic. After 3 days of IVs, the lead doctor gave me the bad news. I first asked, "Let me guess. My liver is failing." He replied, "We tested for that and your liver is in excellent shape. In fact, you could donate a portion of it if you wanted to."
The beer and poor eating affected my blood pressure. I've been healthy ever since. I hope that if you are reading this and you drink, that you stay on your blood tests and blood pressure cuffs!

I should’ve died before I finished my tour in Germany, 43 years ago.

My 88 yr. old Father in law smokes and drinks vodka daily.
He would’ve lived to be about 300 yrs old by this stat.

People that don’t seize life and live it hard when they are young all just to get a few extra months of life when they are in 70s and 80s are fools.
Better to go out like a boss instead of in bedridden misery.

Alleged expert is full of bullschtein. WebMD makes a general statement:
“Alcohol can affect your body in different ways, depending on how much you drink. In general, experts say it’s OK to have up to one drink a day if you’re a woman or two if you’re a man..”
I bought an interesting book last year: “Eat to Beat Disease” by Wm. Li, MD. He calls beer a miracle food that, among other things, clears out your arteries. I’ve always hated beer but kept shopping til I found one I like, Pilsner Urquel, and bought a case. As a small woman,I drink one-half a can every night and have come to enjoy it. Assume my arteries do too. Will have cholesterol test soon, but with blood pressure 116/74 I’m not worried. (I only take one prescription drug, so it’s not because of drugs.)

My grandfather was a roaring drunkard. He died of emphysema at age 82 even though nobody wanted him to last that long apparently. I think the booze pickled him.

Not a problem. I eat red meat, eggs and drink milk. I’ll be dead long before the alcohol gets me...

On Mom’s 99th birthday I told her it was OK if she wanted to take up smoking.
