as it i can have my cake and eat it to.

Well, Roger's not a azzwhole.

really he's all i have left. first thing i do every morning is make sure he's awake i dread the day he's not. lol sometimes he will try to sleep late and i wake him up because I'm concerned.

It must be interesting to still have your dad. Mine's been gone since '86.

We didn't get along worth a damn. In fact, he's the major reason I left home at age 19.

But I never got to know him as a "peer". There was so much tension between us by the time I packed up and left that we didn't even talk.

I'd like to be able to talk with him now,...as the old man I am now. He died when he was about my age.

He led an interesting life.

I'd like to sit and talk with him,....old man to old man,...and listen to what he had to say about it all.

i put a shotgun to my dads head when i was 16 and told him he would never lay a hand on me again or i'd kill him. things improved after that, he knew i wasn't a f-cking kid anymore.

I have an abdominal aneurysm the size of a watermelon. Rather than seek professional medical advice, I thought I'd jump on 24HCF for your sage guidance.

Don't be a pussy go do some heavy weight lifting.

I agree....Let’ er Buck 😎

Sorry to hear that. Was it because he rode your case all the time or what, if you dont mind. Mine was good and bad. The great manipulator. Have a good time hunting or fishing but then not satisfied with whatever I did and comparing me to bigger, tougher, smarter, harder working,...

He was a tough, big, strong hard working asswhole though. I was often on the verge of death as a kid from severe asthma and not supposed to survive back in those day. If I was well, he would take me to the oilfields with the windows rolled up while smoking camels.

By Gods grace I survived and later sis and I figured out he was trying to toughen my lungs up- or cut medical Bill's and collect life ins.

Years later he was always saying you cant eat the horns as he was covering as he never killed big deer like I did.

We had some good times, and some not so good. It wasnt exactly said but I wasnt as big and tough as my younger brother and I wasnt a real man because I didnt really work, being a dr and not working in the oilfield, or as smart as my sisters.

Funny, once though we were nunting in the woods and I heard him shoot down in the palmetto/switchcain bottom. I made my way over and found him frantically looking for blood as dark fell. After we searched a while to no avail, he looked at me dejectedly and looked down at his hands spread two feet apart like he was holding the missed bucks huge rack, grinned sheepishly and then said, gottdayom I wanted to get these talley whacker grabbers on those horns.

The camels killed him at 76. Yep, I miss and curse and pray for him. Dayom allergies.

"See your doctor and make sure your heart is healthy enough for sex."

It was because the old man saw a lot of combat when he was little more than a kid.

I've known some others that did, also.

They've got a vibe that I've learned to recognize.

They can be tough to be around,....especially if they're your old man.

But they earned it, I guess.

Rog,
For the love of God, quit f-ing around and go to cardiologist! I told my father to go find out was causing his chest pains and he gave me a line of BS about it being indigestion and heartburn. That was on a Thursday and the next Tuesday evening he had a massive heart attack and died. He had plans to lessen his stress also...but he died before he was able to act on those plans. Go to the Dr. my friend!

went about three weeks ago, heart is fine just get afib once in awhile.

Roger I’ve got a form of tachycardia. Had it most of my adult life. The type I have is hereditary in my family on my Mom’s side. My grandmother lived to be 99 with it. Mine would get from 140 to 180 before they controlled it with medications. I take metoprolol. It keeps my heart rate at around 75 bpm. May be something as simple as that. But it’s worth getting checked out. Sure hope you get to feeling better buddy! Take care of yourself !

My wife has a fib & has been hospitalized for it once to regulate it. I remembered to ask her tonight what she took for it. She said eloquis & fleconade & she also has a cpap for her apnea.

She asked me why I was asking. I told her there was a guy on the Campfire that had some high heart rates from aphib. He seems like a really good guy , but might be bullheaded like ------, (a friend) & wont go to the Dr.

She said; "he needs to get some pills or shut the [bleep] up about it, I take mine, it's a pain but it ain't that hard to do. What's his deal?"

Her words Rog. but she does OK with the meds. They're better than some.

I think I heard eating sheepherder specials ups the heart rate. Might want to cut down on those fur burgers at the Y. They used to give me hard attacks.

Thats good.

ok i plan on going to the dr for my psa it shot up.
