Appendix out when I was a kid, so back in the days I woulda been removed from the gene pool early on.
Got sick as a dog, vomiting green water and mildly hallucinating for about five days in Africa, the worst part of that was walking out about a hour to the highway and then flagging down a ride for the 120 miles to Accra. The French couple in an old-style LandRover weren’t happy to do it but they did.
Wrecked on my bike and looked horrible for a while, raccoon bruising around both eyes, in hindsight prob’ly a minor skull fracture (I told the kids I was in a parent-teacher conference and never saw that purse coming, but when I got up off the floor I sure showed that lady what’s up
)
Had three molars get infected and break off at the gum ( old root canals) over the last five or six years.
But...... when it comes to major health deals, just dumb luck so far. I’m grateful for every day of it.
