severly ill, but things have turned upward positive healing

battling "Marfan Syndrome" and hard to find a nice organ or tooth.

6'8 or so, 180 lbs, '81' Kilos. picture face chest stomach not aa good idea

Bronchitis and viral symptoms most significant as Pneumonia is a scary place for Marf' survival.

Mother having this stuff when I'm 6 or 8 or whatever passed away 1 year older than me (43) today "44" Years. was traumatic.


I'm a nobody in life. I've taught myself how to provide value in a a small circle of competence. I have thousands of horses that meet the value and wait for odds. I would give that to tournament guys 'under the table' and no need for any credit or recognition, whatsoever. Willing to move to anywhere 'good' on the globe, Aus, UK, France, JAPAN etc...

but in general a 'mental models' guy.
"cognitive bias mitigation"
.
mom died while just starting Biochem. Left college to Daytona beach Shores.
Construction and basketball gambling (me and a 5'7 Bostonian vs any 2 Ballplayers...)) Working so obsessively hard physically, my Marfan Syndrome made my Aorta rip, and LIFE-FLIGHT Helicopter saved me, waking up 10 days later from induced coma.

20 years to that date today.

2 years from that huge spinal artery cut and replaced after Dacron Graft.
dropped to 148 lbs. Had to take steroids.


Then a fairly easy tube for Third so far..

sorry emotional TLDR post

Thoughts/prays/ positive energy whatever. I will recover and be healthy again.

Last post for a while

Wow, I am really, really sorry to read this. I take it from the thread title you are on the improve...I hope.

But this is a lifelong thing, and it sounds like you've had enough for 3+ lifetimes already.

But you've done it before and you'll do it again...positive vibes and prayers

Smart guy, and a tuff guy who plays through pain. Both this forum and the world of racing would be just a bit poorer without your unique presence.

Fight.
